> Does any philosopher mostly come up with their own unique ideas in a black box,

No of course not. Philosophy is a progression of original insights built upon the prior progression of original insights. But the key word here is "original", aka a leap of intuition that reveals something about existence not previously recognized. Not regurgitated, un-credited, pop-philosophy.

yeah, fair enough. On first reading of your comment I missed that the 'cheating' was specifically describing the repetition of prior ideas without credit, as opposed to generally.

Oh right, yeah it's basically a form of plagiarism for internet cred instead of a grade in school.
