So exactly who does taking one picture, putting it in an ad branding a completely different name cost tom a single sale.

As i pointed out with the natalie example the disgruntal users are going to go to google and search for natalie from exgirlfriendfootage.com to find her content when they don't find it in the site (after it has been dcma away)

So exactly how does it change the value of the copyrighted work, how does it cost a sale.
How about we take a different tack and just call it consumer fraud? Got a lawyerly defense for that, Matlock?
