Hi Ethan,
To me, the difference is that Google always points you to the site where the
"original" document is to be found, and if an author updates or withdraws a
paper from their web site, Google will revisit the site within a few weeks and
either update their cached copy or drop the item from their index as
appropriate. Also, authors can ask the search engines not to spider stuff using
a robots.txt file.
People who put illegal copies on their own web sites probably don't check for a
robots.txt file or equivalent meta tags, generally don't have links to the
original content, and are most unlikely to have spiders continually checking the
validity of their copies.
I think that the search engines are mostly OK on both ethics and copyright law.
However, I would not be surprised if Google's serving of cached copies were to
be regarded as technically illegal by the courts.

Hi Steve and list,
While we are on the subject, I found my RAID paper on
multiple sites including this site :
http://www.vampired.net/articles/php/concepts.php and
I know for a fact that no one has gotten permission
from me or IOUG-A, in this regard. Does this not
mirror what is done on Marin's site?
