RE: The unfair practice by @therealwolf associated with @smartsteem

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

he does run a small wedding-planning business with a small team under him, I've confirmed that and for myself and have no reason to doubt it. I agree that it's very unlikely he's taking these pictures himself but I would argue that he does have permission to republish them.

a lot of the images can be found on the web as various location-catalogues on the web present those same images as uploaded by the venue operators, too

really though, I don't even see why that matters so much, the behavior of squatting a variety of trending categories with this minimum effort "original" content via bid-bots should be enough reason to flag his content and ultimately blacklist him from the bid-bots

this really isn't so much an issue about copyright as it is about abusive behavior towards the platform's twisted economics

Sort:  

He's confirmed he doesn't take them himself nor does he have a license to sell them or make a profit off them.

@themarkymark
Do you have the license to right any things without having proof. Then what happens with @magicdice.
We always not rights, someone can be right.
By the way this is not the point of discussion here, the point is that how @therealwolf reacted for query.
You can right in your thoughts but truth may different.
