"..the kind of thing we built the company to do..." "The thing that really made it come together is the shared vision of enabling people to get access to this information and enabling the rights holders to be compensated for it." -Sergey Brin

Ok, so after forking over $125M and agreeing not to scan currently in-print copyright protected works without permission, now it's a "shared vision" ?

I also noted the article only mentioned U.S. works... I guess Google will trample the rights of authors in other countries until they are sued into not doing it.
