Apparently pinterest does it via <meta name="pinterest" content="nopin" />

You could honor a 'content="nopin"'. It's be interesting if that became a standard (similar to nofollow or robots.txt).

Ok, let's say I will honor nopin. But isn't the legality still in question, since it is not user-submitted content? Or can I be safe when the pins will be "small enough"?
