CEO take note, lucky ur not in the EU

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

So if a CEO poster posts a picture of a dog from an EU member country website, explain to us exactly how that makes money for CEO, please.

And who paid the dog his cut? Or the unknowing people some photographer made money out of? Nobody. No inconsistency there?

Copyright law has gone mad, just like capitalism. Fucking lawyers again, squeezing an already overwrung cashcow dry

Jesus, soon we'll need to pay to speak.

Vlad once again trying to make this out to what its not;

this has nothing to do with making money, its stealing someone else's work without receiving permission to use said photo and nothing to do with the subject of said photo
“The posting on a website of a photograph that was freely accessible on another website with the consent of the author requires a new authorisation by that author,” the EU’s top court said in a statement.
NO MENTION of money
“The Court goes on to hold that, subject to the exceptions and limitations laid down exhaustively in that directive, any use of a work by a third party without such prior consent must be regarded as infringing the copyright of that work,” the court said.
More than once, people have requested to use a photo or 2 of mine and depending on what they are using it for, all i ask for is being credited as the photographer,,,

It makes sense. You can better control the population when everyone is guilty of something and you have a legitimate excuse to shut down any website at your discretion.

I think people are misinterpreting this, it's not about people posting photos on Facebook or forums etc, it's more about people taking professional photographers images and publishing them on their own sites without permission or accreditation. It's just updating copyright laws that have existed for a long time for online usage.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Why does only making money off someone else's work cause alarm? Why is it less wrong to freely copy music files or download movies that you didn't pay for off an unauthorized bit-torrent type website, thus depriving the artist/songwriter/screenwriter out of their deserved income?
