Getty Images Letter Forum / Re: Tom Schwabel - copyright equivalent of Nigerian scam
« on: August 22, 2014, 01:34:30 AM »
Out of most of the copyright enforcers, I find Carolyn Wright to be among the most respectable. I know that isn't saying much but I would give her more respect than most of the other losers in the business because she is actually passionate about her photography. She lives and breathes it artistically and professionally.
I absolutely disagree with the crazy amounts she puts into her extortion letters. That is my beef with her. Her letters are misleading and heavy-handed but she does not strike me as being as stupid and sloppy as Getty. She is much smarter than the Getty idiots and she handpicks her clients. As far as I am concerned, she is just in the wrong business. Under any other circumstances (and I cannot believe I am saying this publicly), I almost find her likeable. I actually like her photography and find value in them unlike some other crap I see.
You can be suspect of whether her numbers and whether she will sue. But I would NOT be suspect that the person she represents is the actual copyright holder of the image being claimed.
You seriously need to develop the ability to understand the finer distinctions of what we are explaining to you.

Oh, and I see he knows Carolyn Wright aka Photoattorney. He was mentioned in her blog. So clearly there is something underhanded at work here.
