Yeea I think most here already know that, so why restate the obvious. In my post you quoted I was simply wondering how many affiliates out there are leaving it up to trust that their sponsors have the 2257 thing taken care of... and from what I know of it there are a LOT of them.
Also, and this has been much talked about this before, but since it is in some cases difficult for affiliates to be supplied with all the necessary documentation on each and every pic and video they use from their sponsor-provided content, people want to know what the hell they should do. AND, many affiliates aren't in the US, and 2257 is after all a US LAW.
So I really don't care if the law says nothing about "trusting anyone", the fact is there are plenty of affiliates who are doing just that, so let's try addressing that instead of just stating what's obvious.
"Get the docs or don't promote the sponsor" is perhaps your answer. Well, maybe someone needs to compile a list of sponsors that affiliates can be assured they will get everything they need to
legally promote them?
