For example: If someone were to take a picture of a bus, and post it to their flickr account, that does not make the picture of said bus up for complete and public consumption as though it originated out of thin air. The author of such a work should, at the very least, be credited with his creation. Keep on biking, but keep the stealing to minimum While I respect the idea and movement of Bike Advocates in Western Mass, I do want to bring to your attention a problem with digital rights and media in our modern culture (A problem that this blog apparently hasn’t been made aware of)
