alt Hacker News> Even building architects will sometimes sue if you photograph the house.
? In the US there's the 1a - you can photograph anything you can see (from a public place). In the there's the assumption you can photograph anything without a 'do not photo, military dogs' etc. Never heard of a non-publishable building. Even gchq can be photo's.

Taking photos and publishing photos are 2 different things. The first one doesn't involve copyright for a start.

Just because you can photograph it does not mean you can necessarily publish it. IP rights are a recognized exception to the 1a
