Google's relation with Europe
Google has a strange relationship with Europe they do the same as they do in the US, but they get different responses, just look at the book search deal. This week two items came in the news which might have opposite results for Google. The Germans again were 'fighting' Google, this time publisher want the German cartel authority to stand up to Google. This story resulted in a discussion about how old media should or should not protect their copyrights. Meanwhile in the UK there was a remarkable story in which Newscorp is threatening to sue the UK aggregator NewsNow for linking to several of its newspaper sites.
