Search Engines have safe harbor on image search. That is just a legal loophole but that is the way it is.
You 'give' your content to Google (all search engines) in exchange for the value received for search engines' referrals. That is legally a 'quid pro quo' value received (reasonable compensation) contract.
You could become a noindex website which negates any consent or implied contracted quid pro quo right of a fair use. The search engine is put on notice. The the commercial use by the search engine of your content intentionally becomes a tort -- copyright infringement.
