Inktober was created by Parker 11 years ago. He made the logo, the font, and name. It is his intellectual property and at the moment of its creation given copyright protection. He had to officially register it because others were using his logo and the inktober name on merchandise they were selling.
Parker didn't plagiarize anything from Dunn.
The comparison in Dunn's video visually shows nothing is actually the same if you have any actual knowledge of art. Dunn continually tells the viewer that it's different or Parker changed it to not be to be obvious that it was copied. The work in Dunn's book is the basic fundamentals of drawing, of course both books will have some similar flow, terminology, and illustration examples, teaching the material cannot work without it. Here is a link that has over 600 examples of fundamentals. Many are very similar or the same to Dunn's if you scroll through them.
Dunn cannot claim ownership or creation of any techniques or terminology, which he is trying to do. The layout and sequence of the books don't match up either. Molochs video shows how different the layouts are side by side https://youtu.be/GDNsHVDHfnk
Here is another artist that shows that the layout, illustrations, order are not the same at all.
Dunn himself has to go forward and backwards in his book to find something he thinks is similar. So things are not both following the same sequences.
The themes of the books are different as well. Dunn's is a more academic how for drawing with ink. Parkers is based around the theme of doing Inktober with some lessons on inking and conceptualization.
