To clarify, just because you can find an image on Google doesn't mean it's legal. This law is very loosly enforced but still is a law.

This is why people hate copyrights. They started out as a very useful measure for intangible assets but then people abused them and have made a complete mockery out of them.

I feel like a cybercriminal now after Googling photos of The Eiffel Tower at night.

Lawyer here. You don’t go to jail for copyright infringement. You also don’t go to jail - or get sued - for sharing your holiday photos, it’s only commercial use (sales, advertising etc)

“Photos of the Eiffel Tower at night are illegal”
obuma6459 (2 hours ago)
Long story short, the tower itself's copyright has expired, but the lights that turn on at night were only installed in 1985, so their copyright is still active

The way copyright is handled is absolutely ridiculous no matter the country. This is one of the more egregious examples.
