You produce no evidence of anything beyond indexing of low resolution images by the search engines. People will always send images to their friends via email whether they find them via a search engine or not. People will always plagiarize and infringe copyrights on images whether they find them via search engine or not. Advancing technology is the future and it is up to the so called creative industry to adapt to the way the world is going. People want and need image search so why not get involved and be a part of what people want instead of standing up to it and in the end getting left behind in the dirt (where you seem to belong right now) George.Your reply with thinly veiled personal attacks and arrogant “If you knew what I knew then you wouldn’t be saying that” (which you then don’t go on to reveal) is indication of your painfully weak argument.

If you really understood how the major image search engines work, you would clearly see how they routinely violate the copyright laws of this country. If you want the laws changed, write your Senator or Congressman/woman. Until that happens, Google, Microsoft, Baidu, and Yahoo should have to play by the exact same set of rules and regulations (and laws) as everyone else out here in this free society. I congratulate the German judges ... and those in Belgium and France, as well. They are obviously not being bribed by the technology industry lobbyists who have penetrated all aspects of our government and our legal/court system in this country. Give your readers a break. The images posted on image search engine servers are used by end users day in and day out. Millions and millions of them. For both online and print applications. They are not simply used for "indexing". Do you really believe that nonsense? You cannot even transmit graphics with much larger size or detail over many mobile networks. Only a graphics moron would conclude otherwise. Use one of the image search engines and discover this for yourself. You might be surprised. In fact, why don't you e-mail some of the so-called indexed images to your friends while you're at it. I am sure they have web sites that need new web resolution images as well. I have researched and documented this issue for four solid years now. I know these laws better than anyone else I know. The German courts got this one exactly right ... and it is about damn time. Professional graphic artists and photographers have become increasingly more vocal and are sick and tired of hearing this kind of whining come out of Silicon Valley. These technologists don't think they get to establish their own set of laws and rules in this country ... at the detriment of all others ... or do they? You comments here are welcome. The copyright pendulum has finally begun to swing the right way in this country (and abroad) and we have well-reasoned judges in other countries to thank for bringing up our internal levels of intelligent analysis and competence. Copyright defense lawyers, lobbyists, and politicians have ruled for the past eight years in this country. It's now the time for ordinary hard-working people and our creative communities to have their turn.

I congratulate the German judges … and those in Belgium and France, as well. They are obviously not being bribed by the technology industry lobbyists who have penetrated all aspects of our government and our legal/court system in this country.
