What's to keep a Corbis employee from linking/posting the pictures then claiming "infringement"?
Am I the only one here who thinks Free Republic could be in trouble here? At least in for a long and expensive battle.
Nothing. Of course, if done so with the intent of creating a "factual" basis for litigation, that would be wrong, and if the perp is caught, that would be a fraud on the court, and perhaps punitive damages would be in store.
Americans love litigation, and as lawyers would say, the best things in life are free fees.
