Griner [the mom referred to in the headline] initially licensed the image through Getty but ultimately decided to get the copyright, which was registered in 2012, according to the letter. Since then, Griner has fielded many requests to use the image in advertisements and for online campaigns.
Huh. I didn't realize this. On the one hand, it's hard to know what's copyrighted and what isn't (at least for a regular Joe like me, but I'm not in the business of making money on images I found online). On the other, if you're making/raising money, you really should know better and make it your job to find out (because it is, isn't it?).
