If the server owner isn’t fine with others hottlinking they can simply deny requests
Can I use same logic to say if you are not fine with people robbing your home, you must lock your door?
Hotlinking is stealing. Besides servee owner could change the images your hotlinking to. Or he coukd delete it altogether
