Just another blog by an ambiguously-gendered primeval monster.
Likes: terrorizing mortals; libraries; serious eyeshadow; chain wallets; suspiciously lifelike marble statues

Was it copyright infringement? I don’t understand how anyone could just remove a post like that for, like, NO reason. I mean… what was the reason stated for doing it?
Yeah, he claimed infringement. It seems dubious. He might have rights to the image, but it’s definitely not cut-and-dried. I mean, if it was his photo and it had his copyright watermark or whatever, it would be one thing, but he’s claiming it’s his photos used in a 30 year old magazine article, and…hmm. I really doubt Tumblr bothers to investigate the nuances of such things.

tumblr took the whole post down because if they asked you to remove it, it would still appear on everyone elses blogs who reblogged it. Which would be kind of useless.

I’d have thought, in a case like this, that if NME originally credited the photographer (or the credit can be proven) most people would be happy for you to credit them likewise. It’s not as if it’s a high-quality reproducible image.
