Google Convicted of Copyright Infringement in France
Back to Google in France, a Paris court ruled against the search giant in a case over copyright infringement of French books scanned as part of the Google Books project. The judge determined that Google must pay euro300,000 ($430,000) to French publisher La Martiniere in damages and interest, according to the Associated Press.
This news comes hot on the heels of yesterday’s announcement from a French consortium that it could outdo Google in book scanning. Google ain’t too popular in France this week.
