IANAL either, but I'm confused about something here: Note that the licensing link on the photos points to this page (http://www.usa.gov/copyright.shtml http://www.usa.gov/copyright.shtml) Should the paragraph attached to the whitehouse page flickr photos be treated as an addendum to this page? If so, why not place the addendum on the page? It would seem that the specific claim attached is based on the first caveat listed: That of publicity rights of the the Obamas. Since the Copyright terms page EXPLICITLY states that derivative works may be prepared, my non-accusatory instincts suggest that this is really just poor wording in an attempt to prevent further publication of these images, in whole OR manipulated, for any advertising purposes without express permission by the Obamas.
