Daily Mirror editor says to forget about SEO
Nalts and other anonyomous aggressive onliners are cause for alarm, and I'm very concerned that the online community tolerates too much of this attack crap because it's interesting. It's also too close for my comfort to a proxy for physically assaulting people as were the attacks on Kathy Sierra that got her to quit blogging.

Google lets you search for images and save them is Google infringing on photographers' copyright? There was a case about porn companies suing Google for indexing their images, anyone know how that panned out?
Anyway, in both these scenarios, credit should be included so that we know where to obtain the full track/full quality image.
If my reasoning is correct, I think Lane is nitpicking, which is exactly the opposite thing to do on the Internet - it's just asking for the Streisand effect.
tested in court, and Universal Music has had even 30-second samples
removed from websites. As for photographs, the thumbnail has been
recognized in court decisions as fair use in many cases -- Google won
the case you're referring to.
After reading what you've posted I don't think I'm any better for it. If anything I wish there was a way to sue you and get some compensation for my time you've wasted.
I see the video being edited a big win for us little guys.
