Google Removes Links in Response to DMCA Complaint

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-thats-just-scary dept.

dioscaido writes "If you search Google for Kazaa Lite, you'll find the results a bit lacking. Ironically enough, Sharman Networks, using the DMCA, filed a legal complaint to block Kazaa Lite sites. " Google links the DMCA request at the end of the results which contain the URLs in question, but the URLs aren't really the point. It's scary that the DMCA makes URLs a copyright violation. How long before libraries can't index books? Or own them?

    Why is that people are always hesitant in adopting new technology? We seem to be growing more lethargic with technology each day. The only use we do is misuse. Maybe we need a visit from aliens like in star trek...

    Why did someone mod this down "overrated"? Is easily accessible contact information overrated? I'm just trying to encourage activism here, I love Google as much as the next guy.

    You insult Americans by calling us "USAians", yet you refer to the United Kingdom as "English", when it's composed of Wales, England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.
