What if I fly and record footage and then sell the SD card for $500.. I was selling the SS card not the footage. What an interesting court case this is going to turn into, I'm not sure how many hairs need to be split before someone reasonable will come along and call BS on the FAAs position.

You still own copyright on the footage, and it can't be used without your permission.

If you mark the footage as public domain?

It would only work if the courts think it should work. Contrary to popular belief legal 'hacks' can work, but there is no guarantee.
