I think its strange that there isn't more discussion about the impact on the photographer and the consequences this lawsuit has had on his life, he is pretty much broke and it seems to have destroyed his career not to mention put him and his family through what I would imagine to be pretty harsh emotional distress over the last couple of years. This article: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/jul/12/monkey-selfie-macaque-copyright-court-david-slater https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/jul/12/monkey-s... basically says a couple of months ago he was broke, couldn't afford to replace his equipment or pay his attorney. I hope this result will change his situation but even so this is a huge impact on someone over an issue that realistically is fairly niche. Questions like this are important to be answered, but surely there should also be discussion about was there a better way to do this than ruining someones life over a picture that could never have existed without his direct intervention and creation of the circumstances needed for the monkey to come into contact with the camera.
