Photographers Want Their Cut From Google's Ebooks
It's not just the writers anymore: carluva writes "The American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) and several other visual artist groups are suing Google over its digitization of of millions of books, claiming copyright infringement related to images within the books. The photographers initially wanted to be included in the authors' and publishers' class action suit, but filed their own suit after that request was denied. Google and others assert that images are only included in the digital copies when permission has been obtained from the copyright holder."
that's funny no?
checking their globe; we note a normal week of activity to consist of +-200-300 reportable events. today it reports >1058 events so far this week.
in addition, other type events that used to occur every 100-200 years are now happening daily, or 'normally' as uncle sam would put it.
never a better time to consult with/trust in your creators, where there's no # FUDging, & in fact, a total absence of deception. the lights are coming up all over now. our only purpose here is to care for one another. anything else is temporary illusion supplied by man'kind' hoping/helping to keep our eye off the 'ball'. see you there after the big flash?
when i called them, they suggested i send them 400$ to replace it. not very good customer relations. a few days later 3g came to my area so i haven't missed much due to the defective product.
the gadget is cool, but i'm surmising something comparable, that's affordable is in the wings/already available, & likely the wi-fi will work more than one day. let me think, wi-fi gadget + skype clone.... that will be steve's/att's swan song. at least he got a new pancreas out of the deal.
i'm guessing they should be having a recall, but we all know how costly that is? even more than integrity i guess?
