True, but I doubt most people would consider what
cleanfeed does, with the exception of blocking NewzBin2, as censorship.

And yet if photographing a model, who one would assume not to be concerned over their privacy during the shoot, the first thing you do is ask them to sign a model release form and basically end the shoot if they won't. However, when photographing a wedding copyright of the photographs actually belongs to the photographer on the bais that he can sell you further copies. Government and privacy laws are basically to protect celebrities from the paparazzi nothing to do with protecting the ordinary citizen. In reality you need model and building release forms in case of claims of copyright infringement.
This is an interesting read though it is 4 years old.
As to the point of new business models
Banksy seems to have found a pretty good one
