It’s times like these
that make me ask myself again why I post photos to flickr.
Discovered entirely by serendipity. As far as I know, my photo only graced their About page and wasn’t included in the site downloads. To their credit, the image was removed within 12 hours of my email request and they sent a letter of apology. Twittered to me by Plagarism Today’s Jonathan Bailey, he was impressed.
Nevertheless, not Corbis, not Getty Images, two of the sources they mention they license from. Just my clearly copyrighted photo of Santorini lifted from my flickr photostream.
Such chutzpa.
