Issue dossier
No PhreakNIC 26 badge image is published because the available project-writeup and article photos do not include the full source URL, reusable license or explicit permission basis, attribution, and processing provenance required by badge.gallery; a May 22, 2026 CrumpSpace recheck found real optimized badge photos but no visible reusable photo license or permission statement.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
