    Man someone could almost make a starup company from mirroring articles linked to on slashdot.

    As a moderator, I try to discourage copying the text of an article and posting it as a comment because of the copyright issues. Now I'm sure you got permission from the authors before posting this text here (didn't you?), but many slashdot readers/posters don't seem to have any comprehension of the proper way to legally copy copywriten material (as all material posted on the web is). Is this an example you want to set?

    Two Words... "Google Cache". Of course, they specifically requested permission from the site before the blatantly copied the material from this site to thier caching servers, didn't they ?

    First of all Slashdot is not Google; therefor it doesn't really matter in this case. "They started it" doesn't hold up too well in court. Secondly, Google is considered a search engine and must follow the robots.txt (supposedly) so they have permision to index it. Whether or not they can legally display that index to Google users is questionable. If I'm not mistaken, hasn't Google been given trouble about their caching before?

    CmdrTaco (editor) may be some kind of troll or karma whore, but he's contributed much more to this site than you ever will.

    No one's arguing with you there. What's your point?
