Tim Yang: u don’t know what were my advices to them but post to SearchEngineWatch.com wasn’t my idea at all.

Liew, whatever advice you gave them, it was bad.

You shouldn’t have told them to post to Searchenginewatch when they obviously contravene every kind of copyright imaginable. These guys also blackened the name of every news agency on the planet by falsely calling them “partners”.

No point denying it and you know it.

I guess you’re in for a BIG surprise when you point out Google’s TOS and not Google NEWS’ TOS. Check out point 3 where it ends off by saying you cannot “publicly display any content”.

Hi Tim Yang,

Thanks for the feedback.

by referring to http://www.google.com/terms_of_service.html

“The Google Services are made available for your personal, non-commercial use only….”

Correct us if we still break the google’s tos.

Cheers!!!
