In this episode of The Briefing, Weintraub Tobin partners Scott Hervey and Richard D. Buckley, Jr. break down Moore v. Daily Mail, a new class action alleging the publication copied photos from social media without permission and falsely credited platforms like Instagram instead of the actual creators.
In this episode, they cover:
- How copying and rehosting social media images can lead to copyright infringement claims
- Why crediting Instagram instead of the photographer could create a separate DMCA claim
- How the case could turn a repeated image-sourcing practice into significant class action exposure
Tune in for a clear look at how social media sourcing practices can turn into serious copyright and DMCA exposure.
