Quote: I thought the discussion was about people taking and using your work (in this case photos) without permission.
Ah, okay. The issue then becomes one of practicality.
I pulled this photo of a moose off of Yahoo.

Now I sure as hell am not getting close enough to those antlers to take this picture. Bastard might be having a bad day or something. But it did not even carry the standard disclaimer on the page that "the images may be subject to copyright." It certainly did not even give a suggestion of who I would contact for "permission" to use it.
And if someone comes along with a DMCA claim they had best hurry because I only have two hours to edit the post!
