Re: No Copyright Infringement!

Individual copies for personal use is NOT a violation of any law. That is
why all libraries have photocopy machines, and we all can use our VCRs.

 Not only did I not ask for
your permission to copy them, I will not ever ask you for permission to
keep and store copies of your work on my computer. And you can't sue me -
even though they might be copyrighted images, with disclaimers specifically
telling me I can't copy them.

Does this sound fair to you?

What I did was to access your Web Pages. That's it. The images are stored
in my cache where I can look at them later. Think about that for a
moment... The largest software company on the planet, provides a simple way
for me to have copies of your work on my computer. They know this happens,
they do nothing about. If this is not a perfect thing to sue over, what is?
