New blog post! 🚀
A few months ago a media org demanded a license fee for an open graph image I linked. I paid the fee because I was worried, but it raises serious questions about open graph usage on the web!
This goes through how it went and my thoughts.
@accudio reading this, it sounds like you got legally scammed by some bottom feeders who buy up or encourage the dissemination of IP, and then go fishing for folks they can scare into paying them.
I don’t blame you at all for paying, but I probably would’ve told them to pound sand.
