La goutte d’eau qui fait déborder le vase.
I don’t know how to deal with it. Le Matinal simply pisses me off!
After the press article which was completely written without my permission a few weeks ago and even without meeting me, Le Matinal published a picture on their Facebook page today:
If you follow the blog regularly, you probably recognized this picture which featured in my “Guess Where” edition of September 2011. Well, Le Matinal did not hesitate to STEAL the picture and publish it!
Even the map with the exact location was copied from this personal blog:
Stealing…
For those people of Le Matinal who would be reading this post, here’s the Wikipedia’s definition of “steal”:
Steal may refer to: Theft, the illegal act of taking another person’s property without that person’s freely-given consent
Not at their first attempt
This is definitely not the first time I witnessed Le Matinal publishing things which they found on the web. For instance, when the first new speed cameras were being installed, Le Matinal did not hesitate to once again “STEAL” my pictures and publish them without my consent. After this incident, I mailed Le Matinal and the picture was taken down soon after, without any reply back to me:
What about the others?
That’s really the first time ever I’m writing about this regret : Sometimes I really have this regret of not being a lawyer or something like that. Or perhaps having someone close who can advise me properly.
While it is true that in the past, I had to remind other press/media companies about my intellectual content being used on their pages without my consent, I was duly contacted by the responsible parties each and every time to express their apology, as long as I remember. A few months back, it was Defimedia’s turn to use one of my pictures. The same story again!
But for Le Matinal, pfff; Get yourselves trained and educated properly to respect the life, opinion and property of others! Is it so difficult to ask for permission before using a picture? Or perhaps, send your own photographer to grab that shot?
No wonder, you will get probably lots of shit for Rs 10.

May I ask you a very simple question: is there any piece of work that you have sweated buckets in the process of building it, perfecting, or creating? I really hope so, dear fellow human being. Because, then, if you are someone who works hard, I simply wish something very intensely in YOUR favour: that some lazy bastard steals a part of your work/creation and takes credit without citing you.
Then, and only then, you’ll get the feeling.
The feeling of “fer n ta palabre”, of “bel prejudice” of “bez dans depression”, needing to “avoy twa Beau-Bassin”, and people questioning you as “Attention-seeker or money-grabber” or “big fat cunt”, even if “Li pan servi li pou make money”.
At this very moment, imagine someone laughing hard in your face: some fat cunt!
I hope to have succeeded in avoiding the insensitivity and immaturity of your comment.
Allelujah!
