Around The Horn
10 September 2016
In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at Facebook censorship reversed, the Dropbox problem, OOH pricing and a Copyright Office ruling.
- Facebook Restores Iconic Vietnam War Photo It Censored for Nudity. But the company has more work to do. The gated Internet community should lift editor Espen Egil Egeland's three-day suspension, too. Whose the intern in charge of that (or is that an "algorithm" too)?
- Derrick Story makes the case for Dropbox for Photographers 2016 but in Revealing Dropbox's Dirty Little Security Hack you read a stern warning about the company riding "roughshod over users' security and preference choices." And there's nothing you can do about it.
- Pricing & Negotiating: Still Life for Print and Out of Home Advertising comes up with $13,000 for a one-day still-life ad shoot for a large food/beverage company. But beware the unlimited "Out-Of-Home" license, as Ed Greenberg (whom we cited on this before) warns in the comments.
- In Copyright Office Adopts 'Mailbox' Rule for Appeals to Refusals to Register, Carolyn E. Wright points out that "reconsideration requests only need to be postmarked (via the U.S. Postal Service) or dispatched (via commercial carrier, courier, or messenger) no later than three months after a refusal is issued."
