See, at least in Germany this would actually be a case of editorial content that is not allowed. I see a lot of editorial content like this on all kinds of stock sites, but at least here, you are only allowed to photograph people without their consent for editorial use images if they are either not the main subject of an image (for example a city scene full of people or a historic building, but there are people in front of it), or if they take part in an event of public interest like a demonstration. exact, told this before, but what was meant as a friendly advice, was understood as a personal attac here ... but still the problem with the newspaper example is missing

...any claim that the Content or Metadata infringes ...
and that for there is editorial. of course you cant offer everything under editorial, but in case of the newspaper-rack the contributor likely did nothing wrong, and must not be charged (it doesnt matter whoever wins that lawsuit)
If alamy gets away with this, contributors have to delete all their editorial content, to avoid possible horror bills in further cases

I multiplied 6050 images x a charge to the OP of 11.43 yes, and i concluded if there were only one newspaperrack image then -> 69k figure for legal costs to date would be devided by 1 = 69,151.50 for the contributor

Thank you!
If 'Sell for editorial only'-checkbox was checked than thats quite crazy in this case.
+ One have to assume that others likely also can have success with a claim.
So what about 69,151.50 is on one image?
This needs instant clarification. Alamy contributors seem to be INSECURE TO OFFER EDITORIAL CONTENT from now

Please let me have a question JustAnImage:
Did you set a checkmark on - i dont yave a signed property release and checked for edttorial only ?
and for all: what about the case: bild is restricting freedom of press- if a newspaper have a crazy headline - this can be news

in short, as soon as "this thing" is trained one will get 0,00000000... same like it was with enough images video etc
Ps: may i ask what you define with good money and do you know how often and how many images are used and where the outlet goes?

-there must be an opt out -and in case, like at adobe - an undone and unlearn
it would be absurd getting some ridiculous compensation for training final enemy, rich companies cash cow, with ones hard work

What do you mean with "unlike the rest of the industry which just stealing images to train their machines" ?
Contributors at adobe have no choice. Ah yes, one can delete portfolio, ok, really?

-according to your wiki-list i dont wrote something wrong -btw the pic is allready displayed nearly worldwide but its not that simple like just the list - editorial rules (this is not a editorial shot anyway) ->as im not into editorial better ask a professional also consider: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulationnote: just really interested in the news stand case! and wanted to leave something useful for exchange- and not any lecturing yes the multiple posts are unhappy, will edit if i have time.

image in the link is a nogo (imho) people as main subject, no news content, father with minor in swimwear- you are not allowed to even display this in the internet in europe. No newspaper would dare to print this (and if, dont forget they have a legal department)
As for VIPs maybe, but arent their kids protected?

i meant the news stand
"Had them not been deleted / managed to recover, I would have marked them as "editorial only"
you would had marked them, but have not because the images were deleted and recovered, did i get this rhight?

dont always agree on your editorial statements (esp. with recognizable people + non matter of public concern (and data privacy concerns))
but in this case (unless shots were on non-public ground) i cant see the problem
did you ticked theres property and you dont have a release + sell for editorial only ?
would you like to provide some more information for readers here to avoid a maybe unseen mistake?
thank you!

Simple. Copyright owners have to be asked for agreement BEFORE the use of ai training.

looks like my guess wasnt totally off i have no clue about all this ai, but for me it looks like results are generated (stolen)
from existing keyworded work - without consent, compensation and regard of copyright

How many people have E&O Insurance in the Microstock business? i guess not many, but lets say you missed a pattern, in the end you pay the bill. you have signed this I already have Internet and cameras and lenses, that if I already took and edited a photo for some other agency, then uploading to more places, is = Free Money. The work is done. if you upload you lose a lot because you further devalue prices-> other agencies will also follow down if you upload your computer + router needs at last lets say 200W/h if you upload you spend time thats the opposite of free, dont feel offended, its just my honest opinion.

free money even if you work for 0/hour there are costs for internet electricity equipment insurance for copyright infringements etc, just to name a few its your money that gets tossed i strongly advise you a business consultant!

In my experience, turning off my portfolio on SS (or leaving my work there) didn't affect my sales on Adobe (or any other agency). Different clients, different preferences. thats just lame thinking. If all turn off portfolio, clients move over in a day. But its pointless argueing here on msg...

it would not be wise to focus on companies that only lowering royalties and never will cover production costs
especially big clients are able to pay a ridiculous low 33, 66, 99 licence

kiss of death lets hope this ... nobody can produce content for 0,1 flatrate - not even in cheapest places

« on: April 25, 2022, 13:28 »
lol...
agencies must be stupid not to further decrease your royalties to zero

I can't opt out of the novel use until april. Opt out for distributor and novel use does not make a difference, contributors who have always been opted out, regardless get the cent sales
