"Private property, however, does seem to be in our future, given the decreased fees and increased freedom that holding the event on private property would bring."
I mistyped, I meant to put "private event on public property". But the public property angle is a red herring in regard to photography. Every participant in this private event agrees to Burning Man (BMP) being assigned joint ownership/copyright of all photos taken at the event. Acceptable "personal use" is defined and anything other than that is a breach of BMP copyright.

All this is moot. OCC (being the recipients of any takedown notices) gets to decide the policy of this website in regard of BM photos and the position it has taken is crystal clear.
