Subject: Google wins archiving lawsuit
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi Dave -
In case you hadn't seen this yet, another positive ruling for Google
on the archiving issue:
"A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by a writer who claimed
[Google] infringed on his copyright by archiving a Usenet posting of
his and providing excerpts from his Web site in search results."
The key ruling: "When an ISP automatically and temporarily stores
data without human intervention so that the system can operate and
transmit data to its users, the necessary element of volition
(willful intent to infringe) is missing," the court said.
