Volaris stealing photos_Volaris robando fotos

My dear friend, CyberGus, BTW his birthday is today, caught this company stealing his photo: www.volaris.com.mx/
this is the original foto
Volaris is a travel company, with a fleet of I don't know how many airplanes for domestic flights in Mexico, this is a big company, but it seems that nobody is willing to respect copyrights when your work is on the net... Either in flickr or in his blog, he gives the option to anyone that wants to use their photos, to contact thim, but is easier to steal them...
Shame on Volaris!!!! They own planes and cant afford to buy a photo!!! This is ridiculous!!!!

que pena!
Aunque... alguien ha leido todo lo que explica flickr en el contrato??? yo no lo he hecho, pero seria importante hacerlo. No me queda duda alguna de que la foto es robada, sin embargo, hay que leer, probablemente, al aceptar los terminos del contrato al abrir una cuenta en flickr permitimos que este tipo de cosas pasen, no se, hay que checar

@ana - rosa: gracias, ana, lo se, y lo publico para que se pase la voz, y Volaris pase una vergüenza pública, ya lo hizo una vez con uno de los periódicos más importantes de México y resultó, así que crucemos los dedos otra vez...
@Jube: cuando subes una foto, te preguntan si quieres que creatives commons te protega tu copyright, a lo que mi amigo dijo que si, y además, y él no está dirigiendo su queja contra flickr, todos sabemos el riesgo de subir trabajo a la web, pero su queja es que Volaris esté usando una foto sin permiso, Volaris, una compañía de aviación que tiene no se cuántos aviones, que no pueda comprar una foto es lo ridículo. De todas formas, si ves en su blog, él explica por qué es que le están robando su foto y violando sus derechos de autor.

Sad, but true. Nobody cares... There's many other discussions in flickr about the same theme. Everybody, who has a problem with that shouldn't add images to the net in any form - if they are good (and the most are...), the risk for robbery and other abuses(childs!) is VERY HIGH.

@maldova: I know it's a risk, it doesn't mean it's fare! not only in flickr, how about a photographer's webpage? And the things with children, well that's disgusting!!! and I'm also trying to do something about it!!! I think it can be done..... don't know how, but hope it does...

the best ways to keep others from stealing photos...

on flickr:
_ go to your account
_ edit the "who can download your photos" to "only you"

in general:
_ before you upload a pic, make sure the resolution is set as 72 ppi.
_ 72 is fine for viewing on a monitor, but useless for printing.

@itadela:

Common error... Whatever you see on your screen can be stolen (via simple print screen to clipboard), so it's nearly useless to "stop download" (as long, as I don't wanna print the picture in a commercial manner - at this point, you're right).

Sorry my friends, there's no really save way!

@uva98: You're completely right! It is NOT FAIR! So, If you detect somebody who steal pictures, blame them! But (as I write in my email to you in details) - it's impossible to detect every fraud in the internet, so the "stealers" are in better position than we are.

Creo que el problema va más allá de los términos legales, es una cuestión ética. La comunidad on-line que produce contenidos de calidad los publica con el fin de construir y aportar conocimiento y reflexión, es un bien social y cultural. Lo mínimo que exigimos y esperamos es respeto y valoración del trabajo. No hay pretextos para no pedir permiso, para no compartir la opinión y el interés por usar una foto, se trata de estar a la altura del medio, de la época, de la tecnología, de saber usarla.
Por favor Volaris, es simple, es cuestión de madurez y sensatez, a todos conviene en estos tiempos ser un ejemplo de respeto, raciocinio y cordialidad. Págala y úsala, puedes, no?
Tu target tambien somos nosotros.

(No creo ser ilusa sino consciente de que las cosas ya deben ser de otra manera)
