If anyone is aware of a case involving a lawsuit over the improper use of downloaded Poser freestuff -- then I'd be curious to hear about it.

Somehow, I've got serious doubts that there's been even one such case ever brought against anyone in the short history of Poserdom.

Unless if someone were to take a freebie item, and started selling it. THEN you might have a genuine problem. But even in such a case: most freebie content creators don't have the personal wherewithal to seriously pursue a legal copyright-violation case against an offender. Particularly not if it's an international situation.

I suspect that about the best that anyone could do would be to point out the violation to site admins -- and in the various Poser public forums. Maybe get the offender banned. As has been done before. A true copyright violation can effectively end a Poser merchant's career. Or at least it'll serve to ruin their reputation within the community.

But of course, the copyright offender can always come back later with a different nick.......and pretend to be someone else.

So what's to enforce a freebie EULA? In reality, I believe that we are dealing with an honor system here.

For the average Poser user -- you don't go against the freebie creator's wishes simply because it isn't "nice" to do something like that. Not because you've got any real fear of being sued.
