Just wanted a straw poll of the assembled wisdom...

I put in an FoI request using whatdotheyknow. The council said the info was
available on their website. The website requires registration and agreement
to a load of additional licensing conditions.

I don't want to register or agree to the additional conditions - limiting
how the information can be used analysed (one screen print at a time, no
extraction of info etc)

I complained to the info commissioners office (that the info wasn't
reasonably available) they have said that FoI doesn't override copyright so
that's tough...

I don't see the limits being imposed by registration as a 'copyright'
agreement - so don't think this applies...

My FoI request >
http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/list_of_licensed_premises
Council licence agreement >
http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/index.cfm?request=c1204374

Am I being unreasonable? is the Information Commissioner right?

Cheers
