Why would someone in our industry being distributing content they do not own? Because they are an affiliate. The program owns the content, and gives the affiliate permission to use the photos to promote the program's sites.

Where does he say this in his original post?

DMCA fine, remove the pics fine, but now trying to get money out of it, fucking hilarious.
I want to shoot back something with law that protects us, anyone know what the deal is with this? I've been DMCA'd a hundred times and always comply, but then they demanding money, gfy!
Any real infos/replies thank you very much  |
If, as you say Rochard - he's promoting an affiliate's site using pics by permission - why would he comply with a DMCA takedown notice as he states above?
