But on the other hand, I feel like they have very little rights over dezoomify: if someone is infringing their terms of use, it's dezoomify's users, not me. I would hate to have a lawsuit filed against me, especially by google.
#ZOOMIFY UNINSTALL SOFTWARE#
I am a software engineer, and have very little legal experience. They also want me to stop using the Google Arts & Culture brand.
They are not, and they do actually want me to shut down dezoomify, or at least the ability to download google arts and culture artworks from it. I asked for more details, initially hoping they may be after some actual copyrighted artworks that I would have uploaded by accident. Possible when this content has been removed.

#ZOOMIFY UNINSTALL ARCHIVE#
Adding support for this site on dezoomify let users fully benefit from their right to archive and share these public domain works. Many of the high-resolution digitized artworks available on google arts and culture are from artists whose rights over the works have long expired, and are thus in the public domain. This protocol is substantially more complicated than most others, and I was very proud to implement it in dezoomify, but also in dezoomify-rs and gapdecoder. In 2019, with the help of other contributors, I figured out how the zoomable image protocol behind Google Arts and Culture worked.
I have been maintaining dezoomify as a free and opensource software since, regularly improving it, adding support for new zoomable image formats, and answering questions from the ever larger user base. My name is Ophir, and I created the zoomable image downloader dezoomify several years ago, while I was still in high school.
