<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Actually ABC Background Briefing ('cloud
computing') last Sunday highlighted a case where Google had to withdraw a
complex point in their licence agreement re using Google docs. Underneath a
mountain of legal gobbledegook (or should that be googledegook) was a point that
basically said that anything you put into a google doc, Google can do what they
like with it, without reference to you in any way. Apparently they withdrew the
point a day after the launch of google docs because of the outrage that
followed, which was not so much about the idea as about the incredibly obscure
way that Google phrased it.</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">One
of the reasons that I included the bit about the lengthy licence agreement is
that it has been shown (and I am not sure of how to prove this…) but lengthy
licence agreements like this don’t hold any weight in a court of law as they
are highly unethical. Now – I know that unethical and illegal and two
different things (and this is what makes a good discussion point), but there
was a legal case where a court in the US ruled that it was unreasonable for
the user to be expected to read such as lengthy agreement and then ruled in
the favour of the user.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
