And what I still don’t get, up until last week, Garrison was posted all over here almost daily. We still don’t know what changed all the sudden. No straight answer.

I don’t get it either, and I am not sure that we are interpreting the rules correctly. We may be too restrictive?
Have a gander at this:

We don't know? Or do we? How about $15,000 liability for damages for each infringed work [such as one photo, one cartoon, or one article]

That could add up pretty fast!! Quoting my earlier post...

The House passed a new copyright bill (the CASE Act) on October 22, 2019, and in the Senate it has been approved by the Committee on the Judiciary without amendment.

As outlined in the bill, damages would be capped at $15,000 for each infringed work [article, photo, cartoon, etc.] I fear that FR would not survive the financial loss of paying multiple damages for copyright infringement, and with that kind of money involved, lawsuits would inevitably follow.
