Hi! Surely this topic must be of interest to this list? Background is this: my friend Arun had posted a photograph of his family's Onam celebrations last year, in flickr.com, under a modest Creative Commons attribution license. http://www.flickr.com/photos/maxaud/234884178/ Recently we came across the same image posted in another website, with no attribution and no copyright information, with a "BizHat.com" layer over it. In fine MS Comic Sans font, no less. It is posted by a user called "gallery", with no user information on their profile page. http://gallery.bizhat.com/showphoto.php/photo/54916 In fact they have quite a large collection of images there. I would be surprised if they are the actual copyright holders of a fraction of those. The website has listed no contact info, other than a feedback form. (But there's whois, as always...) Arun has written to the website, and we're waiting to see what's coming out of it. I would like to seek your advice on what can be done under such circumstances, under prevailing copyright laws/norms. And perhaps more imporantly, what can be done to raise awareness: come to think of it, perhaps the website owners are too naive to know that it is actually wrong to use someone else's work this way?
