true. it even goes as far as violating copyright and identity theft, which are pretty serious. some people online just don't know how much trouble they get themselves into by doing so.

try to add a tag to your images via an image editing software [instructions here], so that in the case that you wanna report identity theft, you can show "as proof" an original unwatermarked/untagged picture which shows that you are the original owner of the stolen image. it also helps to discourage other people from using it, because they usually can't use those if another name is on them. although there are still times when they do, which sucks... but *sigh* that's the internet.
