Hello. I've noticed that for some of my uploads on player profiles you've changed the copyright status from owned by some organization to "This photograph or animated image is not eligible for copyright, and so is public domain." Shouldn't this be like how it was before? I took these pictures from streams. Some organizations, like [[Most Valuable Gaming]] (from which I took a screenshot of), have legally threatened Youtubers in the past for using screenshots or footage despite said Youtubers using their property fairly. That's why I set the licenses to owned by the respective organization, so the organization is less likely to threaten us. —[[User: Tiers_nonexistent|<font color="Magenta">S+ Tier</font>]] ([[User talk: Tiers_nonexistent|<font color="Purple">List</font>]]) <font color="Aqua">|</font> [[File:Isohunt.jpg|20px|link=Special:Contributions/Tiers_nonexistent|Look what I've done!!!]] 19:59, 3 April 2017 (EDT) | Hello.

:Is that why they're set that way? I always considered it preposterous because they should have no legitimate copyright status on them. They're just pictures, and they don't have legal rights to said pictures. Honestly, if I know anything about the law, they shouldn't be threatening legal action against people using them to begin with. However, I can't change what they do, so you can go ahead and change them back if you're that concerned about it.
