Zadeh's a fucking freak on a power trip and he has been for years. If it were up to him, no one would have anything slightly related to what he publishes, except for him, on the web.
My purchased photos, if I have the rights to them, then I can protect them. If I use them on my site and I don't want google to list them, that is my legal right. Non-exclusive or not.

I'm not saying the perfect10 guy isn't a moron, or what he did wasn't totally fucked..

But at the end of the day, this is Googles fault. If they would have just removed the damn perfect10 photos when he asked, nobody would be here bitching about what took place.
