>> This new legislation requires every Spanish publication to charge services like Google News for showing even the smallest snippet from their publications, whether they want to or not.
In Spain it's not possible for publishers to allow Google to post without payment.
So, yeah, in this case I missed the point ...
Do you also believe Google should remove the excerpts from web sites on search result pages?
However, you've asked the tricky question. Is it necessary to go to the website or to the original news article or not?
That's just my moral based evaluation, I guess from the perspective of a lawyer it's seen differently, much more strictly.
Are you saying that quoting and news aggregation must be illegal without consent?
