3. Neither C Nor CC

Plagiarism. Copyright. C. Creative commons. CC. Copy. Don't copy. Permission. This. That. They never end. People want you to show whatever you take from the internet. Yet it just doesn't work that way. I really have the utmost respect to the owners of "things", and appreciate that they are being remembered in a way. However, when something is on the internet, there's no way you can prevent everyone from taking and using it. It may be OK for the universities, but the rest (that is millions!) really don't care about copyright, at least when downloading images. Creative commons is a nice idea, it helps, but is insufficient. Just keep away from the internet if you wish to own your precious image only by yourself. (Click on the image to follow link)
