Hmmm, Is This OK?

Today, I was reading some of my favorite blogs and noticed that a few folks had posted some of the death certificates from the Family Search Labs. I’m very excited about theses databases, especially the Texas Deaths, 1890-1976.

I’m just curious though. Does anyone remember the Ancestry fiasco last year? You know, folks were posting images from Ancestry and they threatened them, blah, blah, blah! I understand that Ancestry is a pay-site and that cut into their profits or whatever. How does that work with Family Search? I mean, it’s a free database so would it be wrong to post these images?

I am simply trying my best to avoid any harassing emails. What do you all feel on this subject? Post your comments and let me know. (This is also a chance to see if anyone is actually reading this stuff.) :-)
