Deeplinking Prohibited by Indian Court

Anonymous Coward writes "The Delhi High Court recently passed a temporary injunction restraining India Jobs Search Engine Bixee.com from linking to Naukri.com. This is the first case of its kind in India. There have been similar cases before in the US (Ticketmaster vs Microsoft), Denmark, Australia and Germany before. Wikipedia has a detailed article on the "deeplinking" issue."

    You don't solve a technological problem through legislation. You especially don't change standard network behaviors on a case-by-case basis through legislation. And quite frankly you don't voluntarily venture onto a network with certain standard behaviors and then complain to the feds about them.

    You forget, though, that these are crazy foreign people. Have you seen Temple of Doom?

    Seriously though, they still beleive in a freaking caste system. It's going to take a couple generations before they can grasp the finer points of the internets.
