Fair use? I didn't know the FBI was a news agency/student to which fair-use under the law is aimed. This was someones political photograph, that was used in a man's campaign to get into government, and now a very poorly modified photograph of him is on America's Most Wanted list.
The issue here is that they used an upstanding citizen under the law to base this photograph off. They didn't bother to put in the effort, or even use another terrorist where a mistake would still have a somewhat positive effect. However, now this man's going to be tackled going through airport security because customs officials look at facial features all of which they stole from this poor fucking guy.
- nollidge 17y agoall of which they stole from this poor fucking guy It's the same hair, and sort of the forehead, and that's about it. Complexion, nose, mouth, eyes, ears, and facial hair color are all different.
- pmorici 17y agosorry, your right, fair use is the wrong word for it, it's a derivative work, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative_work http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative_work and since it is substantially different then the original also not copy right infringement.
