Using "labeled for reuse with modification" is the safest category to use for images on your blog, since posts on Steemit get paid. But you will hardly get any images as a result when you choose that option. 

> ...if they do that they will make steem look bad.

It is already happening. Rampant misuse of private images from the internet, including profile pictures to earn a quick cent, and even blatant use of someone else's image as a profile pic!

In the coming months or years it is going to snowball into a major issue - that is, when one of the giants on the internet stand up and decide to do something about plagiarized articles and unauthorized use of copyright images on Steemit. 

Anyone who claims authority and has power on a web platform cannot shy away from ownership of issues, whether it is a blockchain or not. If someone has enough power to flag things to oblivion, it is presumed that he also has the power and authority to do other things.  

However,  I am not a legal authority on the subject. Consider it a whine pertaining to a legit issue, from a minnow who is all for the universal good of the community.

Hey I agre with you, i went off in my had and wrote a crazy long response, dont take it prsonaly its not directed at you but the copyright people lol, just, sorry just PREPARE for  aCRAZY rant! U dont hve to read it iof u dont want!

What haopens when someone broadcasts a pirate image server from Space? or when people set up steemit witness nodeson some foreign countriesOUTSIDE US law I fel like Americans forget that the internet is not  subject to US law

People also take the internet too seriously when it comes to just DATA and IMAGES and Videos, theyre not real, its all 0s and 1s and you could make the case that its all Art

Liek when it became ILLEGAL to display a DVD piracy code that let you copy a DVD and bral the anti copyright code, some magane got on troiuble for displaying a piece of ARTWORK that HAD the code embedded intop it like Ascii art i believe, and it was a 1st amendembt fere speech issue
and all data is protected or shouldnt it be?/

Oh nowI just realized what if someone wants to have like child porn and say its just "Art" is that free speech? And then what if someone has a sketching of his girlfriend or like a leaked photo fo a famous celebrity, and they make a perfect hand drawing of the photo even colorizes it with markers...and then releases it as art....How is that illegal? Yes you can get in trouble for releasing nude images of someone without thir consent....But what if soimeone lietraly draws the image from memory/////and THEY draw it wioth a pen and markers...and they can draw it whenever they want....how is it possible for you to stay ethical while trying to STOP someone an ARTIST from DRAWINg an image....JUST BECAUSE that image LOOKS like the "illegal" image of a hacked celebrity nude.....h=this hypotehtiucal situation makes me mad because of the way people have this authoritarian egoi that makes them thing they can justify ordering around other human beings, and the idea that you cannot do whatever you want with your computer is pretty rediculous, like running a darknet website, , thats crazy that they arrested ross ulricht for operating a website....I guess there is a big issue with thge idea of using a computer of you steal an identity or steal money from an account but honestly if someone was able ti make money by just pushing buttons on a computer and clicking a mouse who are we to say they clicked the wrong combinations?? Who are WE to say they clicked and hit teh wrong bttons to make that money? haha ys of course if you zoom out dfar enough itr all seems arbitrary...but honestly, its a hard issue to think about....peopel should have better security...if you leave your money out in the open your asking for it to be stolen.....its that simple in a world where value ius scarce and we dont allow people to enjoy themselves unless they can ammass an incredible amount of wealth! So dont get mad when people steal stuff when theer are no jobs or instructions for how to make money online.  This planet is in need of massive social reforms because trhe way we treat our children and each other is beginning to become more third world, and less western, America was fine in the 20th century...we thrived in the late 20th  even WITH our restruiuctions....we could become wealthy enough to take care of eevry last poor person n the planet....and the rest of the planet should take note

Its unthinkable that we allow these murdered in the state to prance around acting like they reprsent the people, taking taxes and leveling restructions to STUIFEL the fre market growth of industry

its a DIRECTLY related to peope dying from hgiunger and poverty.  The state wont allow capitalist and the fre market to do its thing! Turbo Capitalism is rthe ONLY way to slve our proiblems!

people WANYT the envioronent to be clean! So peopl will PAy for iut to be cleaned up! Its a MARKET ISSUE

man its so sad that 50% of millenials have POSITIVE feelings about socialism and a bunch of them would even have no problem with a military coup, and theyre SO fucked


I apologize but I am from the worst gneratioon weve ever seen but iots nor our faults its the baby boomers and Ge  X's fault for raising us like pyschopaths! you cannot blame children for being fucked up hen their parents raise rthem in the most fucked up way and ROB whole generations of entire rites of passage!

Anyway sorry wat were we talking about? Copyright? lol yeah its all about our CRAZY egotistical way of lookong at the world...theres this small group of people in the legal and government system minority who sem to think humans can control everything and every aspect of someones life down to the use of image files on websites, and its called Totalitarianism (and the fact that they ONLY notice when someone makes MONEY is proof of how selfish and greedy people are)

I just don't like when people are constantly trying to act like they own intellectual property and YOU KNOW that its a problem when I REMIND you all of Biotech and Big Pharma trying to fucking copyright segments of our DNA, and the completely evil plans they hve for that shit...you KNOW its evil....so please lets stop defending the copyright laws as if we are being paid by the Record Industry.....I just don't understand why we all jhave to have this vested interest in other peoples industris and fortunes....i dont CARE about photograph copyrights and its sad that we are forced to have to care about that or we are made to look  ;iek we are a PIRATE and were UNETHICAL and IMMORAL its just sad, its pathetic, its this tactic they use to guilt people outr of downloading mp3s and downloading video games on bit torrent, they act like they can make something illegal just because youre not doing what theyt want. if people didn't want people to pirate software they should build better anti piracy mechanisms, and maybe the blockchain will help with that .
