It sounded like the author legitmately thinks that "giving credit" for the photo is enough or even desirable. Like, "hey you should be happy I'm getting you exposure."
- mtgx 9y agoThis is especially common among young YouTubers. To them it's common sense that giving credit for something like this is enough to not get them into trouble. Unfortunately, existing copyright laws are quite unforgiving.
- twobyfour 9y agoProbably because in school they've been taught that not giving credit is plagiarism. Unfortunately, they haven't been taught the difference between plagiarism and copyright violation.
