Firstly, AFP grabbed Morel’s images in January 2010, not as you say 2012. Worse, you invite people to opine on whether AFP is protected by Twitter’s ToS, and guide people to the WRONG terms. The terms you refer to were brought in after the AFP incident and therefore do not apply to that incident. The ones that apply are the ones that were current on January 12 2010 and are quite different. If it helps I have a pretty comprehensive - and accurate - series of posts over a two year period following the story. The most recent went up today, quotes extensively from newly available court documents, and is an eye-opener as regards business practices at AFP & Getty: http://www.jeremynicholl.com/blog/2012/05/04/agence-france-presse-vs-morel-%E2%80%9Cafp-got-caught-with-a-hand-in-the-cookie-jar-and-will-have-to-pay%E2%80%9D/ Lauren, there’s an awful lot of confusion and misinformation around regarding the Morel vs AFP/Getty story, and you just added to it.
