Doubtful. By the time Commons's copyvio level becomes noticeable high
copyvios on the net will produce little media interest.

I don't think "there is porn on the net" stories do to well either.

Maybe if we were the first to get our hands on some images that latter
became high profile or if one of our sets of historic photos became
significant (remember how zombietime's traffic jumped during the whole
Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy thing).

If we were able to get pics from the less popular war zones perhaps
that might have an impact in time.
