" For Atlantic's interview, Di Petta said, "Many pictures do not have intellectual property rightsPublic domainSo I will explain, but in fact it turns out that domains exist in almost all of them. While saying "If there is contact from Twitter, I will delete it," while insisting that "Many cameramen want to see a lot of people view their photos."

Furthermore, Atlantic asked "If the cameraman says" I do not want my photograph to be used as a mortgage "," @ HistoryInPics got profit from the amount of traffic generated by the followers, not photos I am saying. " Furthermore, although it says "There is no traffic if there is no photo," traffic is born, whether the posted photos are "A" or "B" Who is watching what you are seeing I can not reply ".
