Will I avoid blocking for copyright infringement on my site?

Question

Images

Hello. I own a site with a lot of pictures. The material can be said to have been obtained by parsing (downloaded). The images had watermarks, which I safely removed. Subsequently, he imposed his own watermark. The image has scientific text written on it. Is it possible to avoid blocking adsense / RKN, etc. after following these steps? In fact, I removed all the labels from the pictures and they seem to look clean.

Answer 1

When you will be sued by copyright holders, the following will be of great importance:
- a legal or natural person owns the site;
- whether the site provided commercial services, the sending of which used objects of copyright;
- what amount of damage was calculated by the expertise appointed by the copyright holder.
From these factors will depend:
- whether you will be contacted;
- Will you be fined?
- whether you will be given a sentence related to deprivation of liberty (albeit conditionally).
Think for yourself, decide for yourself whether to have or not to have ... (c)

Answer 2

By removing the watermarks, you have confirmed your criminal intent. Now wait for one of the real image owners to discover your site. And then it depends on this owner, the lazy one can simply complain to your hosting provider and search engines. More active can sue you.

Answer 3

It is clear that you have chosen a risky path. Whatever it was, but you took someone else's. This alien could be lying around in the net, useless or long forgotten. But since there were watermarks, it was considered one's own.
Therefore:
a) If there is nothing to take from you, then no one will contact you.
b) But if they see it in advertising (that is, they are convicted of an obvious desire to make money on what belongs to them, and not to you), then they will definitely decide that you can have money. And the smell of money, you understand ... It will attract a certain interest in you.
Well, it's up to you to take risks or not.
