Abstract
This article highlights legal, ethical and scientific problems arising from the use of large experimental datasets gathered from the Internet — in particular, image datasets. Such datasets are currently used within research into topics such as information forensics and image processing. This paper strongly recommends against Webcrawling as a means for generating experimental datasets, and proposes safer alternatives.
