The problem with this is there will be an explosion in auto watermarking apps / websites and every photo we look at online will be watermarked to death!

I was just reading about this: http://www.salon.com/2012/12/18/your...e_in_ads_soon/
From the article: "The best way to avoid becoming a part of what CNET dubs ?the world?s largest stock photo agency,? then, is to delete your account by Jan 16." What a great business model--getting millions of people to work for you for free. Surely the only difference between that and outright piracy is a Terms of Service "agreement". |
R.I.P. to all the breakfast pictures that will go undocumented now.

You can file this under "what the fuck where they thinking?"
I'm glad I never uploaded a single photo to that thing. |
Use the picture of a flower from my garden for a stupid ad. Use a picture of my drunk friend with her legs spread while she is throwing gang signs. Use the picture of my boyfriend, my mom and I. It's already viewable on Instagram.com and Tumblr.
I really don't care and will continue using it and that is how most people really feel. |
such a non issue, time to google for assassination attempts in Iran

I could see why Instagram tried to pull this stunt -- because there's some sexy girl Instagram pics that are just complete works of art.
nice try. |
|
people always threaten to delete their account over something like this or emigrate if the wrong side win an election or etc. Never go through with it though.
|
Fuck instagram!

So you guys beware of putting your pictures in there because they will advertise it all over the internet!

Funny shit man! Hypocrites.
Fucking thieving public that wants their movies and music for free are bitching because some company turned the content-ownership tables on them. I laugh my ass off. |
