Copyright
infringement – a question of respect
Times Online, September 18
The proper role and use of copyright is one of the great, unresolved arguments of the
internet era. Many net activists believe that copyright laws in the US have become an
impediment to creativity and innovation in a world of file-sharing and remixing, and that
the entertainment industry in particular is hurting both itself and its customers by
trying to keep tight control over its products.
Google
faces wrath of the ... Belgians
The Sunday Times, September 24
Last week a dozen Belgian papers were cut off by Google after a court ordered the web
giant to stop reproducing their content or face a fine of €1m (£673,000) a day. The
decision strikes at the heart of Google’s business model - accessing and indexing
content found on all kinds of websites, including those of news organisations, without
paying for it.
Publishers
take on Google
The Sunday Times, September 24
NEWSPAPER and book publishers have launched a global initiative to regain the control
many feel they have surrendered to internet search engines such as Google and Yahoo. Many
publishers are concerned that the search engines provide unfettered and unpaid access to
newspaper articles and other published material.
