FYI is a 1:1 repackage of Wikipedia current events page. Without citing the original source.

Yep! I reformat it so it’s more readable, donate $1 per subscription to the Wikimedia foundation, and display link to a content license per page.

It’s about as unethical as clicking the “Reader” button in your browser.

It's not quite the same when you don't attribute clearly. Clicking reader may have the same end result, but it leaves no doubt as to where the information comes from.
