In the post, they emphasized, “Do not copy and repost our images without our permission or crediting us and our photographer, Déjà Fu.” Under this post, BamBam commented asking if he could post the photos. To this, the site replied, “Please credit the photographer and View of the Arts when posting. Thank you.”
Fans that saw the response were shocked that they would reply when he was the person in the photos.
He is the person in pic. He didn't use for commercial just for his profile pic. I think you are too much.

The person asking for permission is the person in the picture. Do I have to give credit? I'm confused. Is that too much?

Are you serious? He is THE ARTIST! Did you even ask for permission to take photo of him?

Excuse me Sir😑Did you ask the Artist permission for taking him photos?? My POV he's already giving you a credit by asking you first. And thats giving your post more exposure to others to see you&your photograper proficiency. Do not pressure him to giving you a free advertise😶

The funniest thing I've ever seen. U are allowed to photograph the artist. But when the artist asked to use the image non-commercially, just to set up his profile, U told him to give credit. U are the one who has to give credit to the person u took the picture of. That's crazy. https://t.co/3CE0Mnha1O

While most criticized the company for asking for credit from the person in the photo, some felt that they were just abiding by copyright laws.
by copyright laws they arent doing anything wrong… its just that copyright laws are messed up and don't even allow THE PERSON IN THE PICTURE their own rights to repost 😭 this happened a while back w ariana grande and she got sued or smth idr https://t.co/IWfxSGtJHt
