Google vs. DMCA and Scientology

Uebergeek writes "This article at the NYTimes (free registration, blah blah) details how google is dealing with the many complaints it gets from organizations when one of its links potentially violates a copyright (or just irritates the copyright's owner). Specifically, it talks about how Google is dealing with the Scientologist's complaints about the list of the Operation Clambake site... now Google features a prominent link to another site that shows the complaint that the Scientologists filed, along with the delisted links."

...now Google features a prominent link to another site that shows the complaint that the Scientologists filed, along with the delisted links.

In otherwords, Google has shuffled responsibility for the fight onto someone else.

If they believe it should be listed, they should have the courage to list it themselves.

Re:Scientologits........is a cult.

[Anonymous Coward]

All religions began as cults. Wether it be a dozen blokes in Palestine raising Lazarus or Buddha sat under a tree. Most religions employ symbolism, the deeper meaning of which is rarely revealed to the lay person. Pearls to swine? Scientology doesn't seem to me to be a religious cult, it has no god. It is more of a personality cult. Like the Manson family.

Sorry I've seen so much about the xenu.net thing on /. I've grown apathetic towards the whole thing!
