Presumably I'm one of the 'suckers' you refer to.

Author copied everybody's content verbatim without obtaining permission first, what you are saying is simply not true.

I think this is a very worthwhile project but that doesn't mean the author should trample over other people's rights.

So no, your 'logic' does not hold up for google because they LINK to the content rather than that they copy it and display it in their own environment (incidentally, google images does do that and I think they ought to be slapped for that).

Sorry .. I should not have phrased it that way. I apologize. I will try to be more constructive in my comments.
