Don't change your permissions to a Creative Commons license, unless you're okay with your work being used somewhere else. The CC license is something that weakened the plaintiff in the Virgin Mobile case. <BR/><BR/>2. If you're really concerned you can register your photos with the copyright office - it's $45 for as many photos as you can fit on a disk (into the thousands), and it greatly strengthens your rights in court. <BR/><BR/>Does anyone know the copyright registration process for writing?Ashley BBZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10976998679376443280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101322623021146099.post-18426224452291634452007-10-06T16:51:00.000-04:002007-10-06T16:51:00.000-04:00Very relevant post - there's a big brouhaha going ...Very relevant post - there's a big brouhaha going on about Nerve Media/Babble's repeated use of Flickr pictures, even those with all rights reserved - no Creative Commons license to reproduce or reuse anywhere. <BR/><BR/>Sweet Juniper writes about the problem here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/sweetjuniper/1398158017/, and there's more on the Sweet Juniper site about the problem as well. <BR/><BR/>I think it's obvious some companies are just not playing by the rules, and until there is a uniform and pervasive code of ethics for this sort of thing we're going to see cases like this for a long while.Ashley BBZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10976998679376443280noreply@blogger.com
