in the past i would agree but in this case i stick with Samsung, this kind of imagery are dime a dozen, i mean the kid splashing in the water is certainly a holiday snap randomly taken on the beach, i don't think he did some serious studio shooting on invested hald a dollar on that.

for this reason, he get his 0.5$ and he can't complain.
now he can write in his CV his stock pics have been used in Samsung ads.
