The problem with unsourced images is it opens up Hive as a whole to allegations that we support image theft. Recently image theft is front and center on everyone's radar due to blatant image theft for NFT creation. Other chains ruined the playing field for everyone in the crypto world. Hive, while isn't a pure-NFT platform, still allows for monetization. At the same time, Hive is gaining popularity. As it does so, it can't be seen as supporting image theft. This negatively affects opportunities to promote Hive (it surfaces as a clause in various partnerships and things like listings). Hive isn't trash, it's the way of the future. To be the way of the future and ensure its value goes up, we do need to make sure it shows that value and quality. This is why everyone is asked to simply link to the source or indicate where the image or text is from. It is only a small, barely noticeable link, that doesn't take away from any posts. That is all.
