They actually tried to sue anyone who published photographs of the
Atomium, either on their personal blog or on album accounts. Probably
through some kind of automated crawler script which was programmed to
send angry letters to anyone who posted a similar looking photograph.

Needless to say, most of it is pure FUD, but unfortunately, civilians
don't have the legal means to defend themselves against the enormous
amounts of leverage big copyright holders can throw at it.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomium for details and links.

I wonder how many of their court cases were won?
