Journal - Tell me if you agree with this statement and then explain why or why not. "Images on the internet are 'free game' - if someone posted I should be able to use it."

I think that the statement is right and wrong. I would like to believe that all people are generally good people, and if that bad picture came along then they would not use it. That is the point in the disagreement. However, some people do believe that no matter what the image is, and believe that it is okay to use, the person that posted it had a reason and a good point, though that might not always be the case. These are the people who believe the picture would be free game. On the other hand, and the side I agree with more, just because it is posted doesn't mean you should be able to use it. Some of the pictures might not be okay to be put up on the web and to be spread. It should not  viable to all viewer, and should be thought through before taking the picture as free game. Overall, the statement is wrong but can be arguable from the other side.
