The lesson here is that you should never, ever place a valuable file onto the internet. I see many, many photographers who try to "protect" their images but much like the software companies, find it difficult if not impossible to keep their products copy-resistant.

February's Popular Photography has a sobering article on how
people steal photos you put on the web left and right for unauthorized
and therefore uncompensated use.
One guy even had his picture ending up on a banknote of an African
country.
Piracy is evidently widespread.
A photographer spent four times pursuing violators what he collected in
eventual judgements.Roy
Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape in the new year.
