Google Image Search Could Shut Down
Mazen Mahdi, Arab News
MANAMA, Bahrain, 14 October 2005 — A preliminary injunction filed by adult website Perfect 10 against Google Image Search at US Federal courts could shut down the popular service used by millions, the Los Angeles based Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) warned.
“Google Image Search helps millions of people locate and learn about information on the web every day,” said Jason Schultz, EFF staff attorney.
“We’re concerned that the public will lose out if Perfect 10 succeeds in shutting it down”.
EFF in an issued statement said that they filed a brief on Wednesday in support of Google Image Search, arguing that a federal district court should reject a request for a preliminary injunction that could shut the service down
Perfect 10 claims that Google violated its copyrights by making and delivering thumbnail images of its photos as Internet search results, arguing that a preliminary injunction is justified because Google is violating its right to reproduce, distribute, and display its copyrighted work
In its friend-of-the-court brief, EFF said that these copies are a well-established fair use of digital images and they help people find and use the works for informational and educational endeavors.
It also added that there is a long tradition in fair use that certain kinds of copies are socially useful, even without permission of the author
EFF said in a statement that courts have held that copies are a legal intermediate step to making non-infringing uses of the copyrighted work sighting the legitimate use of copies in teaching, education, and news reporting
“Thumbnails created by Google Image Search allow users to identify information they are looking for online and then access that information — much like an electronic card catalog,” EFF said
“As certain information about images can only be conveyed visually, there is no other feasible way to provide image search on the Internet than capturing images, transforming them into thumbnails, and then displaying them on a search results page for users.”
Schultz warned that the ramifications of the lawsuit could have a huge impact on educational research
“Without the right to make legal copies, Google Image Search wouldn’t be able to help you find a picture of Martin Luther King, Jr. at the Lincoln Memorial, for example,” he said.
A hearing for the case is set for Nov. 7, 2005.
