Be sure to check out <a href="www.xenu.net">Operation Clambake</a>, the site in question who claims all documentation on their site is <i>", is allowable under the "fair use" provisions of internationally recognized copyright law"</i>. If it is truly a question of copyright, shouldn't the Scientologists be suing the <b>site</b> in question and not Google???? When Google removed the link, it outraged the technology community - can Google win in this case??? Check out what <a href="http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6007">Don Marti</a> has to say about the issue... post:www.metafilter.com,2002:site.16566 Mon, 22 Apr 2002 06:29:24 -0800 gloege scientology google lawsuit suit copyright http://www.metafilter.com/16566/Google-runs-into-Copyright-Dispute#264733 Sites that don't want deep linking shouldn't be on the internet.
