If they are not making commercial use or selling them, I'm not that bothered. On the other hand, what would really piss me off is someone uploading shite and put my name on it.
Amateur snappers seem to get really bent out of shape over what they call "image theft", but in my book it only amounts to theft if they are being used commercially and hence owe me money.

The crazy lady or the guy who goes to such efforts to expose the fraud ,you can almost hear the 'thump.thump,thump...' sound of him knocking one out at every paragraph.

It made me feel a bit bad. I steal photos all the time. Everyday. But I do not watermark them nor claim them as my own, just steal them and make them do unintended things. For fun.
I also see my own photographs all over the place on other peoples' sites.
These people Stacy and Bill, are demented and apparently perfect for each other.
Can you imagine carrying an oversized Louis Vuitton shopping bag and seeking some random somebody's Escalade in a parking lot to be photographed in front of to pretend is one's own to project an image of unearned wealth out of reach? Why else do that? Then bang on about how many pairs of expensive imaginary shoes you own, and isn't everybody reading just so jealous? All coming from photographers who must steal photos to promote themselves. I did not realize how many people out there are more toxic and damaged than my little sister.
