The taper will not get in trouble unlese they try to sell and get caught. Many photocopies are infringements. It is too hard to police. There are efforts to find ways of dealing with this type of infringement. There are even stong criminal statutes involved with copyright infringment.
Casual infringement is har to trace.
ASCP polices music and licences its use. That is well organized. But as a professional portrrait photogrpaher the only money that i make is on the resale of reprints of those portraits that the client likes. If they are copied it is stealing my ideas and using it for their own pleasure without me making the intended proffit. That in the eyes of reasonable people lis stealing and i am protected by the copyright laws.
