ABCNEWS.com : Are There Legal Limits To Web Linking? Great question!!! This one submitted by Dad. Yeah there may be limits and this article does a nice job giving a cursory over view of the early cases surrounding the question. The best part however is the closing quote. "We don't know how copyright law applies to the Web...nearly eight years after the Web [became commercial], we still don't have a good legal analysis of that." Crazy. Moreover the article raises the question i have always pondered, everytime you visit a web page you machine makes a copy locally. Is this fair use? What about the fact that you browser may force it to be displayed in a different font or color than the author intended, is this a derivative work?
