Any ideas as to how to prevent your research from being stolen by other people? Apart from posting the manuscripts first on sites like arXiv, of course.
no other than arxiv
Colleagues of mine had a similar experience. They submitted to some place and got rejected. Three months later, the reviewer rejecting them at the time had published a very similar work. No disclaimer whatsoever. In retrospect, it was a big mistake not to arXiv it first.
I'll emphasize it was not 100% plagiarized. I hypothesize the reviewer had something very similar up in their barrel, most likely developed independently, but they did seize the opportunity to delay my friends' publication and get ahead of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Unforgeable timestamps would help defend against this kind of fraud.https://opentimestamps.org/

That's exactly the reason why I published a (poorly written) preprint containing all core ideas and key terms alongside the submission of my PhD thesis.
Interesting ! I have also seen my research ideas & hard work getting plagiarized, by certain profs/students, who got a lot of popularity with my ideas / work, without mentioning my name anywhere. On top of that they tried to sabotage and slow down my work.
