Pick a spot that you think is appropriate. But you are missing the point. The point in not to continue forward *under the current restrictions and requirements*, that is a dead horse. The glamour is off the rose.

The point is, the copyright police have taken a fear (of something which has never occurred in actual law), and made it a point of battle.
This is, I think, the wrong forum for our disagreement. I mostly rose to our nasty casting of "copyright police", which was a mistake. Sorry to veryone else :) But my final comment is thus; you have misconstrued, I think, the point of he argument against such links. In fact; pretty much all cases I have ever een have been unambiguous in one way or another. So while I would entertain he notion that such a policy is limiting our ability to link to egitimately licensed/hosted content I suggest you kinda need to demonstrate hat with specifics. Perhaps an on-wiki discussion is the way to progress this.
