| The Law Is Struggling to Keep Up with Medium |
10/05/2006
|
|
|
USA Today just published an article: Courts are Asked to Crack down on Bloggers
, the article addresses many of the legal issues that have
resulted from the emergence of blogs and RSS feeds.
While the article does say:
"The blogosphere also is the Internet's Wild West, a rapidly
expanding frontier town with no sheriff."
It fails to address the issue of jurisdiction. Not all posters
on the Internet are held to the same standard, it can become
excessively difficult to sue an individual in another country,
regardless of the laws broken there is no centralized standards
board. Ultimately readers are going to have to weigh the credibility
of bloggers, and realize that they are not held to the same
standards as the traditional news media. Consider the source.

FullFeeds is a petition against partial content
feeds. Not really sure of the petitions purpose, some content
is better suited to a partial content feed, not only to protect
intellectual property but to allow readers to quickly scan
contents for items of interest.
While I understand the sentiment that most people might prefer
full content feeds, I think the petition does not accurately
reflect the issue. It is not a black or white issue, there
is a whole lot of grey.
