Thanks! It really is not worth the risks. Someone will get sued sooner or later. It's not a matter of if, but of when. Steemit is beginning to get known, and known as a place for making money. It won't be long before some very high earning and powerful photographer finds his work on here, and what's more he's not being compensated! Taking an image for personal use is bad, taking it to post on a blog is worse, and taking it to post on a for-profit site where the poster stands to make money is far worse! The likelihood of being sued has gone way up because of what Steemit stands for! A court recently ruled that even anonymous posters are not exempt from copyright infringement lawsuits, and must be unveiled if they are doing something illegal!
