I got confused (and pretty much still am) because I thought I heard, in some "copyright" issue, photographers have a risk of being sued violating the right when they sell their photo images, even street snaps taken in 100 percent pubic, that show some companies' logos, names of businesses. Or at least the photographers may be asked to stop or remove the logos and names, etc. And that logic seems to apply for almost any photographying and publishing without obtaining permission, consensus, or agreement, etc.
