ig alot of artists are just a bit naive about the reality of capitalism, algos and online content creation in large and its not like i dont understand when people are tired of all of it but its just sad seeing all these artists struggle to make a living while media savy artthiefs get 10x their views

#TheArtThief by #MichaelFinkel is a fascinating look at a young man who steals two billion dollars worth of art works from museums in Europe.

I usualy plaster a masive watermark if its art of /for myself or others, tho fanart and such. I am less protective over as legaly, we dont own that art as its fanart.

But this is very valid, its so anoying, we first had the usual artthiefs and now this :c

This is my favorite interaction with a Scammer / Art Thief.

I noticed that they were using almost exactly the same art portfolio as another scammer I pointed it out to them, and the reaction was great.
