Fair use is difficult enough to sort out as it is. If they are useing un subst templates I can kill the fair use vio in seconds. Otherwise I have to go through every person with the image on their user page and ask them to remove it.
This could be the proper occasion for a more technical solution to the fair use problem. Something like a checkbox-based flag on image pages to the effect of "this is a free image" and something that forcibly prevents those images from being added or displayed in the userspace.
