There is a reverse argument for that of course.

There are many publications with copyrights for which it is basically impossible to track down who owns the rights or to some extent even if the rights are still valid.

That means that many smaller publications will literally be lost to time because the remaining copies will eventually be destroyed and lost forever.

Indeed and point 8 is true too unless it is being compliant with regimes with horrific human rights abuse...

Everyone knows of the Three Wise Monkeys, Speak No Evil, See No Evil, Hear No Evil.
But in fact they are only 3 of the 4 wise monkeys.
The fourth wise monkey is Do No Evil.

Whereas the first three sit with their hands over their Mouth, Eyes and Ears respectively, the fourth, Do No Evil, holds his hands over his c*ck!

Picture Here[^]

So Google is the Fourth Wise Monkey.
It sits there all day playing with itself.
Mind you, that is apparently what the internet is for.

I am a very excited man today. I have, in my hand, two tickets to see Eddie Vedder at the Sydney Opera House next month. Woo - elephanting - hoo

For those that don't know, Eddie Vedder is the lead singer of the band Pearl Jam and an amazing musician and song writer. His solo shows are very different to what you might expect. It's generally just him and a ukulele or acoustic guitar.

A sample if you're interested[^]
