Google Images for their own lectures. There is a culture in the classroom that does not take copyright seriously because everyone knows it has become unenforceable. Most people have no idea how to comply with any license other than the CC0. And they think it's normal and acceptable to take media from any site for use in whatever they need. No one tattles on the Happy Birthday singers at restaurants—no one even realizes the song is still copyrighted. And because most authors do not actively pursue unsanctioned reuse of their work, people assume that

If we can build some consensus here about what is the best path forward, I think that would be a great start. - 400:. This is not only outrageous and blatantly false, it also damages our reputation. ... The larger implication, that Springer is "stealing" copyright and the insinuation that Springer is attempting to profit from "ill-gotten gains" is false and we call upon Peter Murray-Rust to correct this allegation immediately. 1749:. And because the situation hasn't yet caused people to stop producing creative works, we all just go along thinking that it's not a serious issue at all. Of course, it usually isn't; we're nitpicking at Springer et al here—they wouldn't pay to use freely licensed images either way, so it doesn't hurt 1767:
Displaying the license more prominently will not solve anything. We all routinely ignore those threats of copyright protection and so on.

Springer SBM is the largest publisher of scholarly books in the world—a remarkable 7,000 a year—and with about 2,000 titles is the second-largest academic journal publisher after Elsevier. Springer owns 55 publishing houses and employs 6,200 people, and has considerable prestige and clout in the

Currently, more than 1800 affected files are on the list, some of which have been used over 100 times outside Wikimedia platforms. The category's description reads "sometimes, media organizations just don't understand that in most cases, you just can't rip an image off Commons and just use it."

Not so much hiding, but on the file page putting them underneath the picture display in a bland grey box, couched in multiple bullets that fail to alert many downloaders. "It's free, isn't it?", is likely to be the default attitude. The actual constraints are likely to be buried in this ethic.

In some industries (like film and music) it's standard practice to carefully review a work to make sure all relevant licensing agreements are in place long before publication. I can't imagine why an academic publisher would hold itself to a lower standard. This is really pretty shocking for a

No "buts", please. Amateur copyright theft does not seem to get special treatment in law, and Knowledge's copyright violations should not be pooh-poohed. I would suggest less self-righteousness in discussing Knowledge and the firm of Julius Springer.
