Judge says google images in violation of copywrites to Perfect 10
LOS ANGELES - A federal court judge has concluded that an image search service run by Google Inc. infringes on the copyrights of adult entertainment company Perfect 10 Inc. by displaying small versions of its images in search results.
But U.S. District Court Judge Howard Matz said that based on evidence submitted at a preliminary injunction hearing, Google could not be held responsible when viewers click on the images and are directed to third-party sites that contain full-size images stolen from Perfect 10?s Web site. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11488787/ Sorry if its a repost, news out at 9 et looks like. |

Heres a great chunk of text that is great for the xpays dmca plans as well.
"The judge found, however, that Google did not violate Perfect 10's copyrights by linking to pages that Perfect 10 claims are using its images without permission." |

|
Well that could be one of the reasons that the google stock has been slipping.

And the drama du jour from a few days ago. And tons of drama to follow i would imagine. |
"The judge ruled that because Google receives advertising money from offering search functions, it is not entitled to the same level of free use of the images as other entities would be."

Its about time someone has the guts to tell Google "No". I am tired of seeing Google get away with everything just because a few communists, you know, the ones who think everything is public property and they can do with it what they like, just because Google is big and has made some good products.
