wasn't there someone saying something like "nuhhhh posting article excerpts is illegal :smug: " over at sdnet awhile back ?

b/c turns out they're wrong:
Late Friday, the federal district court in Nevada issued a declaratory judgment that makes is harder for copyright holders to file lawsuits over excerpts of material and burden online forums and their users with nuisance lawsuits.

The judgment – part of the nuisance lawsuit avalanche started by copyright troll Righthaven – found that Democratic Underground did not infringe the copyright in a Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper article when a user of the online political forum posted a five-sentence excerpt, with a link back to the newspaper's website.

Judge Roger Hunt’s judgment confirms that an online forum is not liable for its users’ posts, even if it was not protected by the safe harbors of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act’s notice and takedown provisions. The decision also clarifies that a common practice on the Internet – excerpting a few sentences and linking to interesting articles elsewhere – is a fair use, not an infringement of copyright.

Unless it's something really short, it's pretty annoying when people post whole articles.

I like to think there's a nice and happy medium

anything more than a page, don't post the whole thing

You are not allowed to by law interfere what anyone says or does that is allowed by the constitution. You can be put in jail for advocating against free speech.

it's not my style of attack but the lol will prolly be dalton's response

he could say "what relevance does this shit even have" and debate it like rationally

he could laugh it off like a chill fellow might when heckled

but my money is on some big swear filled rant and flame garbage because he's a really easy going and approachable guy

sdn moderators and admins very often post in locked threads to get the last word

in fact it happens almost every time someone mentions them by name

my bet remains

Nope, I went on a rant how reposting the entire article wasn't legal and it was dubious to post most of it. Excerpts should stand up to fair us, but it's anyone guess how long that will last (as google has been sued for posting automated excerts in thier google news feed service in some parts of the world).

You could probably get away with it in Australia with Australian articles; ie. you could argue that the freedom of political communication will restrict the operation of copyright in this area.

Not you, Destructionator the terminally I'M A JUGGALO WOOP WOOP.
oh nitram

YOU FORGOT A COMMA THERE!

lol and put a comma where there should be a period

I would have said

"Not you. Destructionator, the terminally I'M A JUGGALO WOOP WOOP."

or better yet

"Not you. I was referring to Destructionator, the terminally I'M A JUGGALO WOOP WOOP."

since it still is a sentence fragment


since

Not you, Destructionator [...]

is like referring to the person by name



you shouldn't throw stones from such hideous grammer

Praxis is the process by which a theory, lesson, or skill is enacted, practised, embodied, or realised. "Praxis" may also refer to the act of engaging, applying, exercising, realising, or practising ideas.
isn't that the name of the moon that blew up in star trek 6?

In Germany, iirc. The suit hasn't been settled yet, and it's mostly the news companies whining that Google should be paying them to do their advertising for them.
