Please read: Copyright Infringement

[quasi modo]

British Newspaper

And awful one as well.

 

[Bungle]

A quick search of the 2016 Transfer thread of the word 'mirror' got 74 results.

Mostly Chico telling them all to take a long look in the mirror and get a grip I would imagine

 

[Ashtonian]

Not worth the effort mate.

Let's just remove them entirely from any ounce of GrandOldTeam.

haha yeah true, not like they are a good source for transfer gossip anyway.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

reprinting 'news' from the Mirror is a bit like having a really bad crap and then eating it!

Blues,

I've had an email today from the legal department of The Mirror, concerning copyright infringement relating to our members copying and pasting their articles on the forum.

As such, we're now having to enforce a ban on anything referencing The Mirror.

Please do not post or reference this publication in any capacity. We'll be using software to monitor any instance of The Mirror and instantly removing.

Thanks for your presumed understanding.

Thanks

Is that all Trinity Mirror publications? (Such as the Echo and a number of other local dailies in big markets?) Or just the Daily Mirror?

(Just saying, but I did mention the concept of copyright infringement when you imposed your rule on copying and pasting any news reports...)

 

[Pienaar's gloves]

Absolute tools, sometimes read their online content, but it's goodbye from me.

Only a slight improvement on The Sun anyway.

 

[Chimpy Glassman]

Blessing in disguise.

Commentary on news articles constitutes 'fair dealing' under Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988: see section 30 on 'fair dealing'.

Provided that the source is cited.

However, given that the Mirror are inhibiting free speech and commentary on news (since we always see citations made on Grand Old Team) through the RIGHT TO LINK.

Therefore Trinity Mirror are stepping on our legal rights very clearly and unjustifiably.

Fully endorse and support said ban of any reference to Trinity Mirror from on high by @GrandOldTeam


These news papers just want to put everything behind a paywall. Plus will not allow commentary on news that is contrary to England and Wales common law.


I would caricature Trinity Mirror, however they may take exception to that. Despite it being legally protected free speech.

The Mirror is officially banned here in my house now.

Oh good lord, you just knew it was coming didn't you?

 

[Jags..class]

i went on the echo site the other day to keep track of something happening and it genuinely tried to get me to do a survey before i could read the article!

I know, what is that about. Didn't do the survey and just closed the browser.

to be fair here.

if you don't copy the whole article then it can be classed as fair use policy, or if you arranged things a little different then it would probably not pick up on their scanners for people to annoy.

and it isn't copyright if the content they are claiming to be copyright has no monetary value to it? May be wrong on that, but as they are not a subscription service and the articles are not paper based, then they are not bound by copyright unless someone is claiming ownership of the article for themselves,

Just do as your told Ash. And use it as an excuse not to read or take notice of that toilet of a paper.

It's the publication I explicitly named. The Mirror.

We ask a descriptor as a minimum is given. This remains, when posting a link to an online news story, please post suitable accompanying text.

[Edit] Note. This isn't anything specific to GOT. In fact, I intended to preemptively ban the Mirror when I saw this on a Man City forum in July 2015.

Jesus wept, Damon, do you have to pretend to know everything about everything?

I trained as a journalist and studied law in relation to publishing.
I worked as a journalist and had to abide by those laws.
I've since spent many years working in online publishing (which is what GrandOldTeam is doing).

So when I say stuff and give a warning, I am not shouting my mouth off for no reason.

Commentary and short excerpts are protected (see my use of content from other sites on the loans thread).

Copy and pasting articles is not, which is what was originally being encouraged (and practised in some cases, including some threads without any attribution) here.

That to me and my understanding of the Law that governs this in England and Wales is PRECISELY what the law requires you to do. No more no less.

In fact if people comment about the news being reported as cited. This exactly the intention of what the law is meant to allow.

It could be photos they are talking about. I would if I were you DD ban any LINKS to photos on Mirrors website.

Also just be ace.

Also add 'Trinity Mirror' to the bad language filter or something.

Justified.
