Why isn't Greece now suing everyone who's ever taken a photo of the Acropolis for damages? That's the only vaguely useful application of this silly law i can think of.


No, no, the Acropolis is too old. What they need to do is install some dramatic lighting, and claim that the new combination is copyrighted. See also: Eiffel tower


So all the old monuments will now get fancy lighting and other extra decoration on them in order to reclaim copyright on the monument?


Just painting a tiny 1mm blue speck should be enough.
