Have You Got A Problem with Website Image Thieves? Create A Page Exposing Them.
Yes, you can ask for your images to be removed from blog sites, and media platforms who use your images without your permission or consent. Many idiots think they can just pinch an image online and use it wherever they please without notifying its owner. In the USA, out of court settlements can mount to mega thousands of dollars for those using other people's images, but forget about this procedure elsewhere. It's time consuming wasted energy. Online image thieves know this very well, especially those who create blog and websites, or social media accounts up behind the protection of large multimedia web host platforms. Now and then, an image you may have taken or created, may appear when browsing through different search engines. Use the Whois, and grab screenshots, URL links, the web platform where the image is located in, and create a page like below exposing each individual image theft, including the original location source of the image. By doing this, you'll get the satisfaction of exposing each individual image that has been stolen and used. Off course, some image thieves wouldn't give jack crap with this type of exposure. They know large multimedia web host providers have them protected and covered.
The most common responses from image thieves when exposed, is their complete denial of actually doing anything wrong using other peoples intellectual property. No apology No guilt. For example, if image thieves weren't exposed, the image or images they use would still be active without any remorse or guilt. It's like muggers and rapists, they keep on doing what they think is right until caught and dealt with. Getting Sued

A typical website image thief selling my image - If I ever meet this thief, I'll stick a camera up his arse.
This dude thinks he can just grab any map design online that looks good for his own benefit and purpose without acknowledging the time and effort of creating such a map. Nick, you're here on this page because you used one of my maps without asking permission or prior consent to use it. Nick, why don't you create your own map?
The above map image was used on the Quora platform titled "Which map best describes your country" How ironic. It should have been titled "Do you use map images created by other people without consent"

The website "How to travel South America - Travel Volunteer" was contacted and asked why they were using my overland travel maps as click bait material without requesting prior consent and permission to do so. This website used 4 different maps I had designed and created. They even used one of my early South American maps, and couldn't resist loading an Asian overland map in the mix. Now tell me, why do I have to waste time requesting online image thieves to remove my property off their click bait website? One thing for certain, if I didn't personally contact this thief, my map designs would've still been active on that website with zero recognition or mention of the rightful owner or links to my own website.
Below, one of many overland travel maps displayed through various pages on this website. Either ask permission and consent to use them, or just pull your finger out of your bum and design your own maps. I really though the entitlement generation was a joke — No, it's real.
The Grey Area Of Business Advertising
Do you own a business advertising customer's privately owned possessions for profit gain?
As a customer, I had sent my AFS Nikon 200-400mm f/4G VRII lens to a reputable camera service center for removal of a dust speck inside the front glass. The lens is shown above, an image taken from the camera service repair FB page. The image is not mine, I have no legal right using this image without consent. Providing an original link in respect to the rightful owner is courteous. This certainly goes both ways! The camera service center used my lens in an image for promotional advertising that was sent for repair only. The lens wasn't sent by courier for promotional business purposes. No doubt, the above combination of two expensive zoom lenses side by side creates positive business flow, but not one red cent of profit comes my way. There was no prior consent to use my lens for business advertising. There is no quick mention who owned the lens, or a link to this website where the AFS Nikon 200-400 f/4G VRII lens is promoted with numerous images the lens has captured. Using someone's privately own product, item or possession for promotional business advertising without consent from the original owner is crossing the grey area.
The AF-S Nikon 200-400 f/4G VRII has been used for more than a decade through continents.
