A person who is knowingly selling stolen property is called a fence.
Helene Hegemann makes all book shops and publishing firms fences. Morally.
Ergo, stealing her book in a book shop could not be considered more morally wrong than stealing intellectual property and selling it. Or could it?

There's another suitable word for plagiarism: rape. Stealing someones words and work and call it your own has the same effects as an actual rape.
