There are two problems with letting just anybody
upload images:
1) Copyright law is very complex. Most people don't understand it.
2) Most people *aren't aware* that they don't understand it.
Isn't that a problem with letting just anybody add text, too?
Not really. I think it's a product of the public school system, but
people generally understand that taking somebody else's writing and
passing it off as their own is wrong, even if they don't understand
that it's a copyright violation. The same can't be said of images.
