About Me
- daveberta
- Dave Cournoyer began blogging in 2005 while studying Political Science at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. In 2006, he was elected Vice-President (External) his Students’ Union and served as Chair of the Council of Alberta University Students until 2007. Since then, he has worked as Communication Coordinator for Alberta’s official opposition party and for various advocacy and public policy groups. As well as writing on this blog, Dave also occasionally writes for publications such as SEE Magazine.
Regardless of what one might think of the Tar Sands or Greenpeace, it concerns me that the City of Edmonton seems to be requiring its approval before citizens can publish a photo of a public facility. Further, it seems to be suggestig that that approval might depend on what the city thinks of the "agenda" of the citizens involved. Sounds a bit scary to me.

ReplyDeleteAnon@2:05 - I don't think citizens do have to worry about publishing a photo of a public facility. However, if an organization trying to make money off the image that is only public because the City deems it so, well then, permission is needed. It is still the responsibility of the City and it is their perogative as to how it is used. Greenpeace knows this and is just to cheap to get their own props and set pieces. And when your cheap, you get sued!
