An interesting story at Slate by a victim of Copyright Theft.

I must say the victim has taken this a lot better than I would.

The victim also posted the original 6MP file with no watermark on the internet. I'm not saying that excuses anyone of anything, but it is pretty damn stupid if you're trying to keep your photos protected..

Thieves remove copyright marks anyway, that doesn't protect against copyright infringement.
