check out all of the photos that have been "pinned" from the quilting board to pinterest!
most without permission I am sure....this is why Pinterest is in hot water over copyright violations!

When I see a picture of something that interests me, I drag it to my desktop and "pin" it there...I see no reason to share that with the world. I saw one person's Pinterest page and found a few things I liked and dragged off...with no real interest in where they came from originally. That's the beef with Pinterest. Stuff gets put out there and goes further and further from its source, which is a concern to people who rely on copyright protection.

I've seen blogs lately with a "Pin-free" badge asking people not to pin stuff from the blog...

Anything that wants permission to access my address book is an automatic "no" for me.
