Copyrighted by whom?
In case you have forgotten - legal genius who is suing Google over a copyright case - every text written after March 1, 1989 is automatically copyrighted within the U.S. by the author of that text once it is placed in a fixed medium. The copyright protection is automatic and requires no notice as of that date, because the U.S. became a member of the Berne Convention which eliminated any requirement for copyright notices. The only real requirement is it must be registered either within 3 months of publication or before the infringement takes place to get statutory damages. You're supposed to know this if you're going to prosecute a copyright claim in court against Google. More evidence to prove your incompetence.

i.e., the ONLY one who has standing to whine. Let the author of this posting step forward if he feels the need. Otherwise, no one else has any interest.

You could still be prosecuted for criminal copyright violation even if you weren't sued for civil infringement. Not likely, unfortunately.

This can't be legal advice, since the person writing it isn't a lawyer and his legal opinions are worthless.

As opposed to you, for whom ALL of your opinions are worthless.

Unlike you, however, I've been in court and actually gotten verdicts in my favor. More than once. Of all the times you've been in court, how many times have you ever gotten a verdict in your favor?

Are you saying that someone can watch a person break the law and if they are not the one who is hurt by that law breaking then they should ignore that law breaking? This from the man who claims to fight discrimination (and he is not the one being discriminated against) and to defend civil rights (and he is not the one who's civil rights are violated)? There seems to be an extreme lack of consistency between these two things. I guess that doesn't really surprise me after all.
