Sukjai Thailand, Tourism Authority of Thailand on Facebook, has amazing powers.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) Sukjai Thailand Facebook page has once again determined who holds the copyright to a photo that is posted on multiple sites on the Internet. TAT says it comes from OKNation.net.

I am absolutely astounded that the Tourism Authority of Thailand can find a photo on the Internet, right click and save it, and then determine who the original photographer was.  Especially where there are multiple copies of the same photo on different web sites.  How do they do it?

Durian Photos

How does the Tourism Authority of Thailand know which of the above photos is the original?  They must have some kind of magical powers.

The first photo in the above group comes from ThaiMuslim.com.

Photo #2 is from SamilaDive.com.

Number 3 is from Mueang.Songkhla.doae.go.th.

Photo Number 4 is Learners.in.th.

Number 5 is from the Bank For Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives.

The rest are from Thaitravelsolution.com, gotoknow.org, biogang.net, and again at the Bank.

With such a diverse group online, just how did the Tourism Authority of Thailand determine who the rightful owner is?  They must have some super-sleuths working at the Tourism Authority of Thailand.

I wonder if the Tourism Authority of Thailand asked for and received permission to use the photo. Hmmm.

And, I thought that all the Tourism Authority of Thailand does is provide information to Thai people in the Thai language.
