Google Books Case
The Google Books Case involves a legal dispute over Google's project to digitize millions of books and make them searchable online. Authors and publishers argued this practice infringed on copyright laws, as they claimed it used their works without permission. Google defended the project by stating it falls under "fair use," which allows limited use of copyrighted material for purposes like education and research. The case raised significant questions about copyright, technology, and access to knowledge, ultimately balancing the rights of creators with the benefits of making information widely accessible.
