Title: Richard Prince Instagram Case
Post by: aot on September 30, 2018, 08:06:53 PM

Has anyone looked into it?

Artist Richard Prince Sells Instagram Photos That Aren’t His For $90K

So, does adding a comment makes the screenshot of a photo an original work?

I am sure, since this is from 2015, this topic might have been discussed previously. If you are aware of the threads, please link to them. I would love to discuss this case and its implications.

Contrast this to this case: "Judge rules that embedding a photo tweet is still copyright infringement"
