I don't think whether something counts as a copyright violation ever depends on having done a modification. > It's like suing someone for trademark violation because they show your company logo in an article about your company or product Which is doable I believe, though maybe rarely done in practice. I haven't watched TV in a long time, but I remember how logos needed to be covered from products to avoid lawsuits. I think the idea comes from people having the right to control how their trademark is portrayed. > absurd Sure.
