Where do you guys get porn pics?

[TheLittleBunny]

This question might be a little stupid, do you guys just see a hot pic and grab it?. I'm trying to get some content for a game I'm developing and I was worried about getting sued or something if I use someone's ass pic without their direct consent, like, I see some people here using porn actors pics and I'm pretty sure they don't have a license or something, so should I worry about it or nah.

there are so many threads asking exactly this and we've all responded to them over and over.

First piece of advice:

• When you have legal questions --- go ask an attorney, not anonymous people on a site where we pirate games.

Second piece of advice:

• Using someone's content without their permission is a violation of Copyright/IP.
• There is always a possibility an IP holder will come after you. The likelihood increases the more visibility and/or money involved. However, certain IP holders will go after everyone they find out about.
• If someone does see their image in your game, they may file a legal claim or, at the very least, file a cease and desist to whatever site you might host it on - whether or not you are attempting to earn money.

Third piece of advice:

• There are defenses one can attempt to use if a creator/company decides to first file a cease and desist, then escalate to legal recourse. They are not guarantees and they fall under the fair use doctrine. These include personal/private use (not sharing with others - at all - no matter if for free or payment), educational purpose, criticism, commentary, and transformative works.
• Fighting a claim against you may likely cost you money - court fees, legal fees, and more.

Fourth piece of advice:

• The likelihood you will get caught? Slim to none. If you are looking to earn money with your game - also know that the funding platforms all have terms which say when you promote your content through them that you must affirm that you own all rights or have permission to use. If you affirm, but are lying, you are in breach of contract -- which, depending upon the outcome, could expose you to greater liability. This could add to the costs you might incur.

The last piece of advice:

• When you have legal questions --- go ask an attorney, not anonymous people on a site where we pirate games.
