Copyright violation -- WSJ

JohnHHarrington · 02-13-2004, 02:17 AM

SC is currently serving as a conduit for two copyright violations, first, the scanned posting of the Wall Street Journal where the author indicates their knowledge of a login and password (i.e. subscription!) to access the online content.

Second, the author of a second post where the electronic version from within the WSJ's paid online service is posted free to all.

Both are violations of Federal Copyright law, and should WSJ learn of them, problems will most definately arise, as they protect their propietary information carefully. As a producer of copyrighted photographs, I feel it's my responsibility to point out this issue.

Happy gliding -- John

Thanks John for pointing your concerns out to us. The matter will be looked into sometime today.

Alright I looked at it and did not see any wrong doing. If it was posted it has been removed by the author.

No, both items are still there... Look at the 1st and 3rd posts.
