Why do some rescues bar certain adopters from posting pictures of their adopted dogs online?

I asked the rescue this myself and their answer was just "it's our IP", which doesn't explain why they're okay with other adopters doing it. On their site they encourage adopters to post pictures to their Facebook page, and their FB page is full of pictures from people who adopted. I asked other people who adopted from them, and they told me the rescue even asked them to post pictures to their page. The rescue actually caught me posting public pictures to a Facebook group about rescue dogs, it turned out they were actually checking around the interner just to make sure we didn't violate their rules. I was threatened with a lawsuit if I didn't immediately take the pictures down, their volunteers spammed up my post to call me all kinds of names, and they texted the reference numbers I gave them to tell them I wrongly showed off pictures of my happy adopted puppy.

They also removed all pictures of the litter and their parents from their site and FB immediately after they were adopted out the first time. All of the five puppies were then "returned to the rescue by their owners" exactly two days later, which they wouldn't tell me why that happened except that they said one of the five puppies was returned because of allergies. By the time I adopted mine the pictures had been removed from the site for weeks, and now months later I still see that none of the posts before it were ever removed. Why is the rescue so weird about this litter?
