I don't believe it is fair use to make an entire copy of someone else's material, if you've made no transformative change to it.

I understand there is an opt-out. My post on daggle.com goes into great depth about that. However, I don't think that's the way Google should operate.

Google just assumed that it was OK to reprint material through its cached pages; many have felt that was presumptuous. So far, they've been OK with it -- but it remains something that colors them as evil in some quarters.

I get you don't agree with that, but others do view it that way. And it sure jumped out to bite Google when it levied allegations that Bing was copying Google.
