More importantly, you may want to think about the context in which you post your pictures.
Although on the surface of it this is a very worrying event, I don't think that anyone here [*] would have been arrested for posting this image on Flickr or photo.net. What drew police attention to this woman is her recent activity. She's a student who has been arrested and fined multiple times during tuition-hike protests in the last year. This image is just one in a series of anti-police images she has posted recently, which according to The Globe & Mail included: `` a photo of a bullet several weeks ago with the caption "we're going to kill," along with a photo of another piece of graffiti that said "one cop, one bullet." A photo posted on the eve of her arrest showed graffiti with the message "Death to cops." Ms. Pawluck posted the photos on Instagram under her handle, anarcommie.'' So this wasn't a random arrest. Pawluck is being disingenuous about this incident and coyly says "art is art". http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/quebec-woman-facing-charges-over-online-anti-police-graffiti/article10779292/ http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2013/04/03/jennifer-pawluck-arrested-instagram-graffiti-police_n_3010400.html http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/why-was-a-student-in-montreal-arrested-for-instagramming-graffiti http://www.opposingviews.com/i/society/crime/jennifer-pawluck-arrested-posting-anti-police-art-instagram -- [*] a possible exception being Larry. :-) On Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 11:33 PM, Igor Roshchin <[email protected]> wrote: > > > You may want to think what photos you post: > http://hyperallergic.com/68151/artist-arrested-for-instagramming-street-art/ > > Cheers, > > Igor > > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
