The Consumerist: "If you combine a mindless and petty tyrant with Walmart's draconian photo rights policies, you get a story like the one Boingboing reported today, where a woman in Florida was told she couldn't scan an 80-year-old portrait of her dead grandmother, because its copyright is surely held by the studio that took it—and copyrights last forever.
If you're going to scan old photos at Walmart, you may want to brush up on copyright basics, since clearly Walmart isn't bothering to train its employees."
