Short version: Australia's Virgin Mobile phone company ran an ad campaign using photos from Flickr that had been posted under Creative Commons licensing. One of the people shown in one of the photos is suing. "The images have been featured within the positive spirit of the Creative Commons Agreement, a legal framework voluntarily chosen by the photographers," the statement said. True enough, but if there's a person recognizable in the photo, you still need a model release. Even shorter version: Virgin messed up badly! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
