AP Preparing New Copyright Management System
,----[ Quote ]
| The new system will register key identifying information about each piece of
| content that AP distributes as well as the terms of use of that content into
| a storage database. It also will employ a built-in "beacon" to notify AP and
| other publishers about how the content is used.

DRM for news? Inside the AP's plan to "wrap" its content
,----[ Quote ]
| The Associated Press, reeling from the newspaper apocalypse, has a new plan
| to "wrap" and "protect" its content though a "digital permissions framework.
| But there's (way) less here than meets the eye.

Permission Culture: Want To Quote A Single Sentence In A Book? Pay Up!
,----[ Quote ]
| Yes, it's become so impossible to quote a single short sentence, that it's
| just not worth doing at all. Welcome to permission society. Some copyright
| system believers may claim that this is just the market at work, but it
| certainly seems a lot more like an undue restriction on freedom of expression
| at the hands of copyright law.

Did European Court Just Make Search Engines Illegal? 11-Word Snippet Can Be
Copyright Infringement
,----[ Quote ]
| With the AP being out there claiming that fair use only covers snippets fewer
| than five words, there are some questions about where the boundaries
| for "fair use" of "snippets" lies. Unfortunately, a new ruling in Europe
| seems to be pretty extreme (in a bad way). The ruling found that a snippet as
| short as eleven words could be copyright infringement.
