Is using google images in company ads illegal?
I work at a small private company as a "computer guy". I often create advertisements (all are email blasts and on the website). I only have been doing these ads for my boss for a couple weeks. He asks me to get backgrounds and designs from google images (no credit is given). I am wondering if and how illegal this is. I originally asked him about this and he said it was ok and he said not to worry about it. Should I ask him about it? Should I suggest something like paid stock photos? How should I approach this? Am I personally liable?
