Disagree totally! It depends on how well you spin the articles. If you spin with 95% or more uniqueness then they are safe anywhere. You must spin paragraphs, sentences and words!
Write something generic and spin it. E.g. Dog walking. Spin paragraphs, sentences and words. Then you can just find replace dog with 'cat', 'mouse', whatever!
I've done this before on an article site and used one very well spun article 100s of times on a money site. Wasn't a problem at all. But I did, 4 paragraphs, 4 sentences, and as many synonyms as possible for each word and you'll be fine.
The aim is to get a 100% unique article (or as close to 100% as possible) with different numbers of paragraphs, different number of sentences per paragraph and in total, different numbers of words. Then manually spin images/videos so that they appear at random places. All of this needs to be readable.
