<i>"There is some supportive legal authority that “pinning” to a Pinterest wall is not technically “copying” (and therefore cannot be copyright infringement) because the user is only really uploading a URL to the original web location of an image, without actually “copying” the image."</i>
This statement is not correct.
Pinterest uploads images to its servers, and strips it of EXIF data (copyright management information.)
Pinterest uploads full-size images.
That's the problem.
<i>"the attribution and original linking supports (rather than detracts from) the copyright owners’ economic benefits."</i>
Again, it's not "original linking" and in practice, attribution gives virtually no economic benefit.
In my case, I removed ~5000 infringed images from Pinterest and recovered the 10% of my traffic that I had lost when the infringement activity started to skyrocket early this year. From ~5000 instances of infringement, I received less than 50 visitors per month.
The reality was that my content displayed on Pinterest directly competed against my content displayed on my own website. It doesn't help that my content is 95% graphical. Pinterest has an advantage over my website: it has the lure of the best infringed content from the best sources, along with mine.
