One of the things we're working to fix is helping photographers overcome the vast complexity of international IP law. Artists have the right to their work in almost every country, but it's practically impossible for them to enforce this at home let alone in unknown legal systems. We currently help artists obtain compensation for the unauthorized use of their work in nearly ten countries.

- fabulist 11y agoCopyright violation is a huge problem for photographers, but if you have a better solution than suing violators they are all ears, I'm sure.
- danielfoster 11y agoIn what way? Photographers work hard to make a living, and we've seen many cases of businesses (we only pursue businesses) knowingly profiting from photographers' work, and then in turn tell the photographers to go take a hike. Here's a perspective on image theft from one of our photographers: https://www.pixsy.com/pay-up-for-the-photo-you-stole/ https://www.pixsy.com/pay-up-for-the-photo-you-stole/ I don't see how helping a photographer obtain compensation for a stolen photo is any different from helping an airline passenger collect compensation.
