Don’t Screw Us!

This is not a message to the Government but it can be as well. This is about making people understand what a photograph is and theft. It is about making people aware of their actions and guilt. This video is good and not as nasty as it should be. Visit dontscrewus.org when you have the time or conscience.

      Chica, only if the photographer finds you and tells you so :) I sometimes find my photo on some other site but once the watermark is intact, I don’t bother too much. It’s not like I have much to steal :)

      I think Chennette is the expert in that one. She’s the lawyer :)

    There is the fair use policy in the US and that, along with well intoned ignorance, is what saves a lot of consciences and arses, I suppose :)
