Where did iilluminaughtii get the script for the Autism Speaks videos? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

For those that do not know, iilluminaughtii (creator of these highly influential videos on the organization Autism Speaks) was recently exposed for plagiarizing a significant portion of her videos, (video, main video) including her video on the relation between autism and vaccines.

Was this video plagiarized like many of her current videos, or did she research it herself?

If it was plagiarized, where was it taken from?

Could you give the timestamp for the Autism Speaks claim? I can't find it anywhere in the video.

if I recall he didn't mention the Autism Speaks video, but her other videos on Autism. Sources should be in the bottom corner of the screen. here is the timestamp to that section: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDp3cB5fHXQ&t=2594s
