Well, this is a curious case and not one, I think, that has much to do with life here just yet. I understand the concern about stealing photos that appear on Twitter, which is sort of the equivalent of poaching a Pulitzer Prize winning photo by running a photo of it in the newspaper. There was a case where a photographer took portraits of the murderer Richard Speck, and then someone else did a story on Speck and snapped a photo of the photo, and the original photographer I believe took them to court or at least made hay about demanding proper credit.
But embedding here is usually videos from sites that explicitly offer embedding as a function (and generally have a way to allow the user to turn off that ability as well). I would not get too worried about that just yet.
