We all know how hard it is to come up with passive income ideas 2020. Any type of residual income from sources like Pond5, Shutterstock, and Adobe Stock are few and far in between.

    I was just going through StoryBlock's agreement for contributers (I'm just interested in uploading audio/music, fyi) and came across this & I don't think I'll be joining. The way I read this, they can take your stuff, tell you it's no good and go ahead and make money off of it (via AI learning models that produce derivatives from your work!) without compensating you and without you having any further claim to it. Or am I interpreting this wrong?? Read the (ii) section! Basically what happened to you was: they took your stuff, told you to f off and will be using it in their AI-generated revenues... DO READ AGREEMENTS people! Don't go by your feelings, go by small print...

    Game theory says that no one or almost no one will give up some earning to receive NO Earnings, so shutterstock wins. The only way this can actually work is if contributors have bargaining power and since millions of people can't be united into a bargaining unit, shutterstock wins. The only thing that might work is a class action suit because shutterstock used contributor images to train their AI without remuneration or ability to opt out. This is recent. Class action law suit.

      We actually never ended up uploading anything to Blackbox. Blackbox takes a percentage of your earnings in exchange for the convenience of uploading to multiple platforms for you. I think if you want them to keyword for you, you're sharing an even larger percentage of your earnings. Another alternative we'd be using now if we uploaded video more often would be Wirestock! They take a 15% fee but do all the keywording/ uploading to multiple networks for you. Although I imagine Blackbox keywording may be better. Let us know if you have more questions!
