Is he a street photographer? If not, it's like a painter criticising a songwriter.
I don't particularly care for a lot of those street images and agree with a lot of his criticisms, but one should be careful throwing stones. And always attribute people's work.

Who cares.
He is the thief from some of this site photographers. Some of the pictures your hero has stolen went on exhibition.

Mentor
This has been happening with wedding, portrait and event photography since the development of the internet. I once asked my mentor Monte Zucker about it and the conversation went something like this:
I asked, “Monte what are you going to do when others copy your photographs displayed on the internet?”
He said, “I’m not wasting my time chasing after them. Too busy. Don’t want lawyers involved. If mine get copied and then some one else shows them as their work, then they will be in trouble when a client finds out. They won’t be able to make photographs like mine or yours. They eventually fade away.”
Fade away all you plagiarists! Here today gone tomorrow.

Some just don't get it that photography is art and there is no single recipe for doing good or bad art.
I'd much rather he showed his photos and wrote about them, that would be interesting.

I don't recognize photos of mine in his article, which confirms that I am a great artist.
