Reddit keeps its strange DMCA fight over Google search results alive
摘要
美国联邦法官保罗·恩格尔梅耶驳回SerpApi的撤诉动议，认定Reddit对SerpApi与Perplexity AI合谋绕过谷歌访问控制、非法抓取Reddit受版权保护内容的指控在现阶段具有合理性。此前谷歌针对Reddit的类似诉讼被另一法院驳回，因其未能证明Reddit曾授权谷歌阻止第三方抓取。SerpApi批评谷歌与Reddit试图利用《数字千年版权法
On Friday, a judge largely denied a motion to dismiss from a web scraper, SerpApi, which is accused of conspiring with Perplexity AI to illegally scrape copyrighted Reddit content from Google search results.
In his opinion, US District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer said that at this early stage, Reddit has plausibly pleaded that there was a conspiracy, with SerpApi providing a product to circumvent Google access controls and Perplexity AI paying for it.
Engelmayer’s decision came less than two weeks after another court dismissed a similar action raised by Google, finding that the company had not proven that rights holders, such as Reddit, had ever authorized the search engine to prevent the scraping of protected content. Google told Ars that it planned to amend its complaint to keep its lawsuit alive, but SerpApi told Ars that Google and Reddit were both trying to “use the DMCA to wall off the open Internet by retroactively claiming control over content that they didn’t author and don’t own.”
