Like other people, I fully support the author here and do hope he sees fair compensation for this. But my eyes rolled out of my head at this part:
> "Initially, I was in disbelief for two reasons. I’ve not watched Stranger Things, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about it. Could it be true that my work has become a part of their product and I should be so honored to be part of it? The images I were seeing did not lie. They were my photos."
> "Then it turned into a feeling of betrayal. How could they, a large corporate company with day-to-day experience in handling rights-protected materials, use my material without so much as asking me for permission? How did they think they can get away with it?"
Dude, get a grip. This was very obviously the mistake of a (probably rushed) junior designer whose work wasn't checked over thoroughly, not a sinister plot coming straight from the boardroom. Assert your rights and get your due, but please avoid the histrionics.
