Re: Philippine Photographer Sues Major Daily for Copyright Infringement
Quite a long read! Very brave move!
I have read also from another forum a photo stolen by Boy & Kris morning show. The owner is asking for damages.
Go guys! We are proud of you!
Cheers!

Re: Philippine Photographer Sues Major Daily for Copyright Infringement
Anton, Go for it! It's going to be an important milestone and inflection point in the professional/amateur photographer scene. its important that you consult others with strong opinion on the matter. If you lose, its a precedent, and will reference this case forever. I feel for you Anton. If you settle, then that's as good as losing. So if you will just settle, suggest keep it under the radar.

Re: Philippine Photographer Sues Major Daily for Copyright Infringement
win or lose, i think it was a big step to file a case and let everyone be aware.. you know how the wheels of justice turn in this country... it will be a long and hard battle against a 108 year old newspaper company.
