Newspaper Industry Lawyers Attack Fair Use, Claim Google Is Illegal

,----[ Quote ]
| Hmm. So, on Monday Rupert Murdoch suggests 
| that the courts would reject fair use as a 
| concept, and by Friday two newspaper industry 
| lawyers just happen to have an op-ed piece in 
| the Wall Street Journal explaining how Google 
| violates copyright law by caching the 
| websites it indexes.

Shorter copyrights stimulate artistic creation

,----[ Quote ]
| As I have expressed before on this blog, I 
| am no big fan of patents and copyrights, 
| and monopoly power in general. I am 
| particularly annoyed, on a personal level, 
| by copyrights on music that have been 
| menacing Internet radio for a while now. I 
| have always believed that the fact that 
| artists have a free medium that allows them 
| to be discovered is much better for them 
| than being fed on commercial radio what the 
| big labels deem good for the general 
| public.
