If it IS the norm, maybe the legal community needs to reflect very heavily on the role of lawyers in business. Tim: I also noticed you suggested Getty Images in your book. I'm not sure if you know, or if it really matters, that Getty Images has been pursuing an aggressive IP-infringement lawsuit campaign suing small businesses (usually asking for about $600-1000) for using images that they got through a website developer who apparently did not have the permission to pass on the image. The letter they send out has the exact same language, I read through the copy sent to a family member just last month. In response to Pmen and Tim:
