The years go by, and the amount of stupidity grows proportionally with the number of project participants. Here are some recent example - the author sees a barrier on the Maps, googles the image by the word “barrier”, and publishes them as his own photos. Finds a drugstore - publishes photos from a drug advertisement. Sees a grocery store - finds and publishes photos of a random grocery store, as it looked 50-70 years ago.
And so on. The author’s avatar also causes some confusion.
I don’t understand where the much-vaunted work of AI on identifying and blocking irrelevant, stolen content, use of Google logos, etc. is?
The Complain button has disappeared from the author’s profile. Complaints have not been accepted by email for a long time either.
The author’s profile contains 1027 successfully published photos. Of these, a couple of dozen can be called useful, half are trash, the rest are stolen from the Internet. Complaining about every photo of each such user - a lifetime is not enough.
Where can I report about such authors at the present time?
Miracle - it turns out you can complain about a profile from your phone, but it’s impossible from your computer. Okay, I complained. But for this user, only the “other violations” option works. Let’s time together how long it will take for this author to cease to exist, along with all his garbage and direct violations of copyright and trademark rights.

Vandalized objects always attract other vandals. This is the Broken Windows Theory at work. I found one such object (it has already been removed by support), but in the process several more vandal authors were exposed.
Here is just a short list (at some point I just got tired of finding them):
Everyone of us are well-informed about this amazing feature, the only difficulty is that it doesn’t actually work. Sergey wrote that it is impossible to even indicate the reason for the complaint so that the algorithms or people on the other end understand where to look. So thank you very much for your valuable advice.
