Does he expect to receive $6,612 each time anyone buys the photo, or $6,612 is the total amount needed to release the photo into public domain?

- srl 15y agoHe's being slightly facetious, I'd think, but: $6,612 is the amount he claims it would take the 'thief' to recreate the photo on their own. (Of course, he's only talking about material costs; he could easily claim $300,000 and get away with it, but anyway.) Thus, if the thief uses the photo inappropriately, since it "should" have cost 6k, that's what the lawyer will charge. In theory.
- icebraining 15y agoI think he expects to receive $6612 every time someone commits copyright infringement by using the photo without a license.
