I should move to Germany and sue anyone who takes photos of my tattoos. I'd have enough to retire on after a year or two.
When laws allow unlimited ownership of ideas, it is to a society as iron fusion is to the core of a star.
When verified realities lead us to anger, we must learn to reevaluate our beliefs.

The last time I was in Berlin, we stopped and had dinner one evening. I puked that night about 2AM in the morning from food poisoning! Next time I'll be sure to take a photo of my vomit and share it with the good folks in Germany.

yep!
the thing here is a photo would prove a meal was a piece of shit or was not as advertised but such proof is illegal?
this just proves that photography of copyright material should be legal while the illegal part would be if it were to be sold
