It's going to get worse for you if you do business in the UK. Google the plans for orphaned works laws and consider how easy it is to remove meta data, claim you did a due diligence search and get away with using photographs commercially for free or at worst an industry standard fee.

The concept is good as far as allowing photos to not end up locked away forever to be forgotten about, especially those that are culturally or historically significant, but the way it's proposed just seems wide open for abuse.
