Another Flickr photo flicked!

February 23, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

It sure seems like Flickr is a hotspot for copyright thievery.  What is particularly striking in this particular case is that the alleged copyright thief is no other than a government agency!

The Department of Information and Public relation, Uttarakhand (a state in India) has allegedly used Subir’s photo for the publicity of MahaKumbh 2010 without his permission, using their own interpretation and caption for the photograph.

Whom would you approach if you had a bone to pick with a government agency violating your copyright?
