I’d like to pass on a note of request to our freelance contributors due to a worldwide policy change.. In future, please don’t send photos to Reuters that were processed from RAW or CR2 files. If you want to shoot raw images that’s fine, just take JPEGs at the same time. Only send us the photos that were originally JPEGs, with minimal processing (cropping, correcting levels, etc).

On dpreview found amazing comment on this
Ken Rockwell is a prophet.
I think they do not need to. With oversupply of freelancers most will be very afraid even with suspicion :-)
How are they going to know? No way to enforce it.
