    Asia-Pacific Google (and Facebook) Threatens to Remove Its Service From Australia

    All true, but it was not like this was a law that wold solve those issues. In the end its just news providers lobbying for a law to wean money off of tech platforms that they get more from that the other way around already. Just because it would effect a platform one disagrees with first...

    Asia-Pacific Google (and Facebook) Threatens to Remove Its Service From Australia

    Why? Any other gets enough traction the government would just try to make them pay too. As is this is still a very porky law and its set a disturbing precedent for search engines now. And I can see Google lobbying to have this charge applied to all search engines in Australia now if it isn't...

    Huh, very all Chinese businesses belong to China of you. On this though I gotta disagree, if your going to be a global business you face each nations rules yourself especially if you advocate for not being bound to your home countries laws for your branches in others.

    How's that though? I can understand mirroring even non-paywall content as something they can be charged for. Given how most of those make money through ad revenue from site traffic and having their content shown in googles news app wouldnt give them any revenue otherwise. Summaries are a bit...

    Asia-Pacific Google (and Facebook) Threatens to Remove Its Service From Australia

    Wait is this for a Google News Showcase thing? Because if the publishers asked Google to pay for literally using their article in another site instead of just links to the site showing up in searches I can understand. Its not too clear what they mean by reuse. Do links to the original articles...

    Asia-Pacific Google (and Facebook) Threatens to Remove Its Service From Australia

    I'm actually on googles side here as distasteful as that is. I mean what? Pay them to bring traffic to their site? What next Pronhud get a cut every time someone types Pron? Also would this law apply specifically to Google or to all search engines? Because if its the later Australia might just...
