    Discontinued The gateway to the Openverse. Openverse is a search tool for CC-licensed and public domain content across the internet.

  • Thanks for the HN treatment. As a followup piece, a Google response of this being "a bug".

    Followup story, my return rate for CC licensed images of "dog" went from 3 to 13. More than that, license info is not displayed (only linked), is frequently wrong, and photo credits often given to the site, not the creator of the image.
