Dumb question: is this legal ?
- madphilosopher 3y agoIllegal but not immoral.
- hedora 3y agoThe front page of Anna’s archive makes it clear they want to organize the would’s information, and make it universally accessible, so no. The next question is why the courts would say that Anna’s archive is illegal, but Google is not. There are some tests around encouraging copyright infringement, and Google is very careful to pass those tests despite providing extremely similar services over similarly-illegal sites. The mental and legal gymnastics required for all this are fascinating. I suggest studying internet IP law.
- __anon-2023__ 3y ago> organize the would’s information, and make it universally accessible, so no. That's similar one of Google's goals, and they do it (mostly) legally.
- tiagod 3y agoDepends on your jurisdiction (but in most likelihood not)
- mdp2021 3y agoIt could be a greatest lead to know where it may be - places where cultivation is a paramount value.
- Mezzie 3y agoIn the US and Canada (the only countries whose copyright law I have studied), it is not.
- immibis 3y agoBlatantly not. Smart question: How much do the politicians who made this illegal care about YOUR finances?
- hk__2 3y ago> Smart question: How much do the politicians who made this illegal care about YOUR finances? How is that a smart question? You very likely can’t name the "politicians who made this illegal" because haring others’ intellectual property without permission has been illegal by definition since the beginning of intellectual property.
- immibis 3y agoYup. How much do the politicians who created intellectual property care about YOUR finances?
