No, she claims she is covered under fair use because she doesn't make any money from it, blah blah blah.

- peetahb 14y agoNo, she claims she is covered under fair use because she doesn't make any money from it, blah blah blah. Plus, her claim of being a lawyer makes the whole matter quite baffling.
- Natsu 14y agoActually, there have been fair use decisions when an entire work was used non-commercially: http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/06/fair-use-defense/ http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2011/06/fair-use-defense/ I'm not saying that's the case here, but whether the use was commercial or not is one of the four factors considered when deciding fair use.
- pdonis 14y agoI don't think "commercial" requires you to "make money" from the use. I think using the photo as an illustration on your business website qualifies as "commercial" even if you can't show that it brought you any business. (Of course, IANAL.)
- Natsu 14y agoThere are different degrees "commercial." It's not a binary distinction.
