It seems everyone in this story is petty and unredeemable.<p>And copyright law for pictures and music is disgusting.

This is is a great article on why you should hate journalists and the media.<p>They are arguing it&#x27;s ok to legally attack&#x2F;bill someone who uses a photo on a Christmas Card of themselves.<p>Then they argue it&#x27;s ok to break the law and photograph people against their will, as part of the above.<p>You could talk about at 1000 copies it&#x27;s probably for business use and the trespass I think was on a private but shared land.<p>But they are such awful people now they don&#x27;t even feel the need.

Seems like you shouldn&#x27;t be able to photograph me and my property without my permission or waiver and then claim commercial rights to it that go so far as to exclude myself. Don&#x27;t care what the law is but the sniff test don&#x27;t pass for me. Even hidden camera shows eventually get participants to sign off.
