Downloading Copyrighted Images & Right-Click Enabled Downloads

Recommended Posts

How is that there's now a downloads section without any qualification as to image ownership and rights usage? You are also now able to right click and download any image which was prevented on the old site. Seems some tweaking is still required here and I have no way to prevent copyrighted images from being taken and used anywhere they downloader posts them or puts them to use illegally. Very concerned about this now. Any plans to restrict or qualify how downloaded images can be used?  Please re-enable the right click blocking at a minimum.

Yes. Tweaking has been ongoing since the migration began.

Are you sure you ever really did? I always assume that such “prevention” mechanisms are a band aid offering a false sense of security. Any Internetter who wants to use your images will likely get around such “safety” valves with relative ease.

At the simplest and lowest level, a total or partial screen grab will get an image in many cases.
