Re: @lurker... Nine Seniles
Basically in this case SCOTUS rule on a point of law, not actually the case, they can rule that the AC misinterpreted the fedral copywrite law and an API structure is not a copywriteable.
Google are appealing the lower court's decision that the API is copywriteable, as if the API is not copywritable, then there use, wether fair or otherwise is not relevant.
if SCOTUS set the president that API listings are akin to dial plans, then the industry is safe.
