Yes they could. Unless you have their permission to use their content, you don’t have free reign to it. You may think you are in the right, but you are going to spend a boat load of money defending it.

I’ve seen this place sued too many times to take a risk on someone trying to make a point.

Have you met the moderators?

Just kidding, just kidding! (Love 'ya, mods! You're doing a fantastic, though thankless job.)

Actually, CV, we can't post Bloomberg stuff here, one of many off limits sources.

Well I do join in Freepathons, so I get to ask.

That and a dollar will buy you the same thing it does me.....A cuppa coffee. Maybe not at Starbucks, dunno, I've never been in one.

There's what should be and then what is. With the old 9th Circuit judgement from years ago tossing out FR's fair use claim on full text, and some news media sources later on who won't even allow links or one line in their order, it's sometimes easier and best to play it safe instead of picking a legal fight.

If excerpts aren't allowed, I won't even post content from them. If it's something that important, I'll post a summary of the events in my own words and bypass the story. (my own work)

One paragraph is not reproduction.

We're all screwed just the same.

It’s so time consuming and tedious to post a new thread that when it gets pulled there is definitely a pissed off factor.

The fact that a thread gets pulled should be an indication that the site doesn't want it to be posted.

And if you're dumb enough to try and post it again and it gets pulled, then nobody gives a rats butt whether you get pissed off about it or not.........You're lucky to still be here

But don't listen to me, go ahead, test the mods some more..... maybe you'll get lucky.

Never confuse The Law with Justice.

Typically one only receives the Justice from The Law that one is willing to pay for. It's good to have deep pockets (sometimes).

Imagine how we feel having to clean up your "mistake" on our personal time. We're volunteers trying to help Jim and not your personal secretary. Follow the rules like everyone else and you'll save all of us a lot of time.

A quick freepmail explaining why the thread was pulled would go a long way in improving the operation. Sorry I didn’t know that posting a link could possibly be a copyright violation. IT DOESN”T MAKE SENSE. But I will try to comply in the future. Like a said a little freepmail would help instead of the heavy hand.
