Google sides against Righthaven in appeal of copyright case
« on: January 14, 2012, 03:59:11 PM »
Internet giant Google Inc. sided against copyright company Righthaven LLC on Friday in one of its appeals.

And in what turned out to be an unlucky Friday the 13th for Righthaven, judges rejected two more of its no-warning copyright infringement lawsuits over newspaper content.

Most questions have already been addressed in the forums, get yourself educated before making decisions.

Any advice is strictly that, and anything I may state is based on my opinions, and observations.

I'm a non-lawyer but not legally ignorant either. Under the 1st Amendment, I have the right to post facts & opinions using rhetorical hyperbole, colloquialisms, metaphors, parody, snark, or epithets. Under Section 230 of CDA, I'm only responsible for posts I write, not what others write.
