Default Copyright isuue

Has the internet has complicated the copyright situation somewhat? In the UK the photographer owns the copyright unless he/she expressly granted it to the model or a third party (& can therefore publish at will), whereas in the US, a model release form is legally required, whereby the model grants the photograher permission to publish. That's perhaps why so many sites have fairly convoluted disclaimers - eg, only look at this if it's legal wherever you are?
