I chanced upon a shot taken by me years ago of a foreign football player (who used to play in Singapore) that is being featured a write-up on him in his native language (the watermark is still there).
I felt there must be nothing much I can do about it (for this case being I tagged this particular player on FB in the said picture) when publication may had obtained the picture via the player, instead of me, the copyright owner.
I am not sure if leeway as such has allows publication to obtain picture and credit their source (for this case, the player, maybe) in the manner.
Although the bigger concern being if picture being obtained via this channel for commercial purpose, is that anything the copyright owners (like myself) can do to protect our rights?
