Actually I do because there is a note: "Important Note : The publisher ( The Indian Express ) of the above news article owns the copyrights of the article / content. Request to kindly not reproduce or circulate the content further. The information is only shared only with an internal community who have been featured on this article. All copyrights are duly acknowledged." (bold is mine)
When we forward the emails with the above note, to other technical mailing lists, they scold me for forwarding the copyrighted material.
I do not see any info on copyright or have to put a footnote like above in any of the news websites.
I request Tinu to remove the footnote or just share the links and some snippet.
Thanks.
You are free to forward just the links. Reproducing verbatim elsewhere might not go well with "fair use". Also heard elsewhere on another list on the same topic that news is meant to be shared, so no harm. Frankly all this obsession on copyright only after editing Wikipedia, otherwise since when people in India thought of copyright seriously.
