After reading this, I edited and switched from linking to an image to just posting a link to an image in the WTF NSFW thread.
I'd like to see a legal opinion on the difference between.
Uploading a copyrighted image.
Embedding a link to a copyrighted image.
Posting a link to a copyrighted image.
I remember some legal fight over some site linking to images or content from another site within a frame without attribution or something.
Most of what gets posted to IOTD and the WTF NSFW threads is third party content. Unless fair use is explicitly established, I believe copyright is assumed. But I'm not a lawyer.
