No. I mean, I don't 100% know copyright law (never mind copyright law of various countries), but as someone who has art that is all rights reserved, there is an expectation (or, a fully legal reason to believe) that nobody will 'redistribute it' or use it in any way. At least not without expressed permission.
I'd certainly not be pleased one bit, doesn't matter if there is a link or not :/
The little blurb on flicker explains it like this : "You, the copyright holder, reserve all rights provided by copyright law, such as the right to make copies, distribute your work, perform your work, license, or otherwise exploit your work; no rights are waived under this license."
I mean, I feel relatively confident that a lot of the lovely photography and stuff that finds its way on tumblr without mention of where it came from and then used by us is probably (when you finally get down to the original source) copyrighted, but I think avoiding original sources like a flicker profile that claims full copyright is good practice, because in these cases, we can't claim ignorance lol.
Someone can definitely come along and prove me wrong on this, though.
