PKB??
The link is to a Google search result. "PKB" does not occur on it, at
least not here.

Perhaps it would help if you specified the actual article (there are

Most of what I am finding for "PKB" is from chemistry. I have doubts
about that being relevant.
PKB -> Pot. Kettle. Black.
That at least makes sense. If Disney/Pixar is in the plagiarism
business, that is.

Disney has long been in the business of taking old classics and copyrighting them as their own. Many of them not technically plagiarism, since the originals were never copyrighted. Snow White and Cinderella, to name two off the top of my head.

Winny the Pooh, they bought the rights to, I don't know about Pinocchio or James and the Giant Peach, though since Dahl was still alive when they made JatGP, I assume there was some sort of negotiation.
Similarly, Disney doesn't own the copyrights to the older stoires of Cinderlla, Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, etc. Disney only owns the cpyrights for their own versions of those.
Roald Dahl refused to sell the movie rights for any of his works after the "saccharine, sappy, and sentimental" mistreatment of the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie with Gene Wilder. After he died, his widow sold the James and the Giant Peach movie rights to Disney (she offered them to other movie companies as well, but accepted Disney's agreement) - she said Roald would have liked the movie, which is doubtful. In 2021 the Dahl family sold the copyrights for all his works to Netflix in 2021 for around US$500million.
