  link versus hotlink

  on Um, Sorry, But You Don't Get To Sue When Somebody Moves Images You're Hotlinking

  the code is simple... link: Picture hotlink: The link does not affect the creator of the material as it is just taking you to that site directly. the hotlink, though it is not stealing the image, is still requiring that the creator provide free bandwidth to you. That is what is wrong here. If the image is part of a trademark or causes brand confusion then I could see an issue with it.
