Black cat in empty unlit room. Love it, it made me laugh. Btw, another 500.000+ images down in their database.

Haha, very funny. It will be rejected for bad focus, though.

Personally I believe that we need to go darker than this, photobombing, writing reviews, commenting on Facebook, etc. . . are all very well.

If I lived in NY I would find out where Oringer and his side kick Pavlovsk live and start a civil disobedience campaign against them.

I don't mean violence I mean informing all his neighbors about what they are doing, protesting outside their houses, posting leaflets and posters around their area, spray painting their gates and walls with messages, protesting outside their offices, phoning them up a million times a day, phoning the company up a million times a day, jamming their phone lines.

Spamming their inboxes by the millions, flooding their buyer lines with calls and emails, having a co-ordinated attack on the website and making it a denial of service.

There are a million ways to take it to the next level.

More direct action is required.

Sometimes I put the link of the dpreview article in my comments, on Youtube (media channels) and other

This one:

I like that. Really great concept!

The only way you might improve it would be to change the cut-off "shut" to "sh*t"… as in SHITTERSTOCK.

Thank you! OH yes, it was tempting...

And this is exactly what "going too far" means.

Please don't be a complete moron. There are enough complete morons in this world.

You do not punish someone's family (or neighbors for that matter) for their actions. Use your brain.

Agreed. No matter what they did, vandalism is not the answer. Spray painting someones property is idiotic.

If anyone still has images on Shutterstock, disable or delete them NOW.

It could be effective if some media giant made a story about BoycottShutterstock, have you tagged these giants in your social posts?
