pretty incredible, isnt it?  Getty has us jumping through hoops to get [accidental] images down asap, and these clowns can just say no when we ask to have our copyrighted material removed from their server [that they display on purpose].  How did copyright get so twisted?

As I have written on this and othr forums, The US Copyright Act needs to be amended to add a section mirroring the UK law which states that there are no damages in cases of innocent infringement provided the party ceases and desists upon being given notice. That would shift the focus onto thoise who infirnge intentionally.
