This user has published 5 pictures in two weeks of an actress and none of them were free. He has been warned on commons and also on the French Wikipedia (a language I am sure he understands). Despite warnings, he continues to published copytighted picture on commons (one today). I think he should be blocked as he does not understand how copyright works.
