Publishing House Burda prints photos of Streetstyle Blogger: Without permission. Without Credit. Without Payment.
9. September 2009 Blogwatch
Very delicate story of image theft was published today by Mary Scherpe, with Stil in Berlin, Germany´s most famous streetstyle blogger. While i wrote a post on my German blog, those who are interested in getting more information about the what, the how and the why, a possibility to work together in a great partnership went wrong from A to Z, could get it with the help of babelfish.
While i don´t intend to point with my finger towards publishing house Burda, – knowing well that some consider us bloggers to steal pictures and mistreat copyrights, too (time to fix it and to find some satisfiable solutions for all of us) -, it´s obvious, who´s the bad guy in this specific case. But you can be sure, next time it´ll be some other corporation, brand or firm.
What´s important, is – if there´s a professional blogger, obviously being mistreated, going public with an incident that happened months before, you can be sure, he or she reflected this step very well.
And while each of us could face things like this too, it´s time to get involved.
Next time, it could be you, reaching out for help whith going public.
