COPYVIO!!!

SWiK does not license the content of RSS feeds under CC, see our Terms of Service for more information about this.

It’s true that copyrighted material is protected when distributed by RSS feed, even without a copyright notice, but deep linking has generally been held to not be copyright infringement, and the feed scenario seems analogous. We are not actively misrepresenting ownership of the material, or using the feeds to divert traffic for commercial benefit, and we have a DMCA take down procedure in our terms of service, so if a copyright owner actually has a claim of infringement, they can send a take down notice.

WARNING about del.icio.us bookmarks: People do own copyrights on their bookmarks. Licensing them with CC is an option. Some feeds usage lead to automatic copyright violation.

List of feeds that have to be deleted:

  • http://swik.net/opensource/del.icio.us+tag%2Fopensource
  • http://swik.net/Firefox/del.icio.us%2Ftag%2Ffirefox
  • http://swik.net/Linspire/del.icio.us+tag%2Flinspire
