In 2004, iParadigms, LLC, the company behind Turnitin.com, registered ten million dollars in profit (Dotinga, 2004, p. 1).Today, Turnitin is the most massive plagiarism detection technology available, a billion-dollar industry that has expanded to include assessment, peer review, and automated grading.lagiarism.org was created and began the process of adding student papers, web materials, academic papers, books, and other sources to the database that Barrie hoped would act as a threat severe enough to deter any student who considered cheating.
