Thank you for the great advice. We should share this to a maximum of people. We don't want people to get in trouble for violating copyright especially when done accidentally.

there's no new big wall of information from the NY Times. ask them, what's the scoop? my opinion, take a moment. wtf are you doing?

That's exactly what the 3rd post said.
