I have contacted Facebook for a similar question, one time�
Facebook answered me: "Thanks for your report - you did the right thing by letting us know about this. We looked over the Page you reported, and though it doesn't go against one of our specific Community Standards"

That's what facebook said back to me as well.

I simply typed on their post. "Since you're making money from the stand, shouldn't you at least pay for the images that you're using to promote it?"

The owner of the stand replied "call me, ##########"

I texted because I hate the phone "I contribute to both of those sites ... We only make an average of maybe 40 cents per image sale. I don't make much off of it but, for some people that's their entire livelihood. Taking the images like that is the fundamental equivalent of me going down there and taking some corn."

Then the post was gone. He replied with a smiley face is all. I don't generally care much when individuals do that kind of thing just in their day to day posting and memes but, when it's a business promoting their wares and whatnot I think they can put a couple bucks out for a * image without a watermark.

I always remember the censorship is extreme here. Can we loosen that up a bit? I think we're all adults man!

'The system' does it automagically.

Facebook will only remove images for the copyright holder, they won't even look at whether things appear to be stolen, no matter how blatant it is.

FAA is another place that doesn't care about infringing or stolen images.
