The same goes for various embedded videos like YouTube. The platform provides you with their IFRAME codes specifically for inserting these videos into your articles. There is no message like: "Please steal our content this way". You don't steal it. You share it.

Correct. An rss feed is aggregation. Thats the intended use of that tool. The same goes for video Embeds.

However, if you take information from an rss feed and try to pass it off as your own original content, thats plagiarism/theft.

Semantics aside, we’re both trying to say the same thing.
