Or that you could call a natural outcropping and mountain, something new, lease it to the Brits and then they will make it a World historic site and forbid photography, because it's "sacred". When the real reason is, they are paying the tribe for market rights and running a tourist attraction.

Too distant?

Ayers Rock is Uluru - renamed back to it's Aboriginal name. It's a mountain, not a rock anyway. UNESCO World historic site.

But Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park is for profit, the tribe and the government: (following this twisted tale?)

First declared a national park under Commonwealth law on 24 May 1977, the Australian Government handed the deeds to the park back to its Anangu traditional owners on 26 October 1985. Anangu then leased to the Director of National Parks, to be jointly managed under a board made up of a majority of traditional owners.

(1) A person must not use a captured image of a Commonwealth reserve to derive commercial gain.

(2) For sub-regulation (1): captured images include an image that was not captured for a commercial purpose or in contravention of the Act or these regulations.

In other words, you can't photograph the mountain! Not even for editorial or news use. It's all about money.

For comparison here's the law for the US: “…the Secretary shall not require a permit nor assess a fee for still photography on lands administered by the Secretary if such photography takes place where members of the public are generally allowed…”

It does require that commercial photography, special use, film and other work, must be done with a permit and possibly a fee. But visitors are free, in public areas, to shoot all the photos they want.

We own our parks in the USA. Other countries they are National Trust, Park Boards and Others. Ours are taxpayer and fee supported. Theirs are run by non-profits and private organizations. We still have freedom of the press and freedom of panorama. (another world photo issue, not now)

Denali is fair enough, it's not like the name changed, it's more like it was given back it's proper name.
