or, even easier to understand analogy: Daniel is the person on the photograph, Spotify/Instagram are the photographers and the hacker is the person who just stole the picture.
- oneeyedpigeon 11y agoI fear you're still overcomplicating it: Daniel is a battery manufacturer. The person complaining bought a camera from Spotify, which came with one of Daniel's batteries inside. Someone stole that camera. (It's not perfect, but it's probably as close as you're going to get)
- AznHisoka 11y agoMost people don't associate batteries with cameras these days..
- rakoo 11y agoDaniel built the camera lens that is mounted on your camera; the hacker managed to make your camera send all the photos on his computer.
- darkr 11y agoTBH, libcurl is probably a dependency of a library that they use. So it's more like Daniel is a supplier of zinc (and just so happens to give that zinc away for free) to a battery manufacturer.. Who sell batteries to Spotify, who manufacture cameras?
- Cthulhu_ 11y agoDaniel is the photographer, Spotify uses his pictures, random user contacts him after finding his address in the attribution.
- woah 11y agoOr- the user is the photographer, Instagram is making use of the photos, and Daniel hacked her phone
- psykovsky 11y agoI fear she's labeling herself as a photographer because she uses Instagram to post photos taken with her iphone...
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoAnd why the snark about what tools the photographer is using? Do they have to fool around in a darkroom with chemicals to be a 'real photographer'? Note that their phone camera is better equipment than a generation of 'real' digital photographers had to make do with.
- daveguy 11y agoI think they are pointing out that just because you call yourself a photographer doesn't mean you are a professional photographer. You can't assume familiarity with copyright law from someone who calls themselves a photographer, but you can assume that familiarity from a professional photographer.
