Google - fraud exposed again

Yet another small win for mankind, and a dent in the Google armor. Yesterday, Belgian courts ordered that it remove whole articles it was allowing users to access, even though the articles are supposed to be subscription based.

There are lots of other publications that are supposed to be subscription based, but are accessible by just typing in the news article into Google's search box. One is Digitimes - try it.

This type of behavior is why them and YouTube fit so well culturally - disregard for intellectual property.
