Joe Keery calls out Elite Daily for posting his photography with its own watermark on Instagram
Joe Keery's photography is being stolen, and his friends and family aren't having it.
Stranger Things came to an end after nine years and five seasons on New Year's Eve, which means the show and its cast are currently hot topics on social media. People are celebrating how far the actors have come and honoring the show that made the young cast members famous. Unfortunately, some aren't being as respectful as others.
Joe Keery's photos watermarked by Elite Daily
Recently, Elite Daily shared a photo of the Stranger Things star and watermarked the post. The only problem? Keery himself took the photo, so no one else has the right to claim his work.
"And take the water mark [off] I took these I gotta get a water mark," Keery commented on the post.
Keery's sister also chimed in. "Hey, @elitedaily, how'd you water mark @djotime's pics?!?!" she wrote. He then lobbied for a fruit basket for her as any nice brother would. You can check out the interactions below:
It's likely Elite Daily chose to watermark the photo because they are the ones who inserted a screenshot of a tweet over it. It also could have been a mistake. Considering neither the text nor the photo is Elite Daily's original work, they probably should have left the watermark in the drafts.
Keery's sister isn't the only person in his life coming to his defense. Finn Wolfhard, who played Mike Wheeler on Stranger Things, is making sure to credit the Steve Harrington actor on social media.
