Worth noting that Google thinks it can still use short snippets in search for free, but it looks like French publishers disagree, so this fight is probably not over. This is a good piece by @riptari https://t.co/ONsg2fWcdy

Reuters latest publisher to sign deal for News Showcase. Google says nearly 450 publications across a dozen countries have signed up.

(For comparison, last number of sources aggregated in Google News I've seen is 80,000. Search no doubt indexes many more) https://t.co/9T7x3KtMSE

Google agrees to pay French publishers for news

“Sébastien Missoffe, CEO of #Google France, said the deal ‘confirms Google's commitment to compensate publishers appropriately under French law, and opens up new opportunities for our publisher partners.’https://t.co/ZDCRbUQThB

this statement from Google sends up major alarm bells. Note how they're effectively bundling payments for newly established neighboring rights into their "News Showcase" payoffs and then throwing out the $1B number from G news fund to shock and awe press. https://t.co/9jup2wkqI2 pic.twitter.com/5ResVQHbZS

Googleがニュース検索停止した件でフランスのパブリッシャーが起こした訴訟はGoogleの負け。ニュースへの対価を支払うことにはなってるけど、でも誰にいくら支払うのか自体を決めるにもコストはかかるし、結局大手でお金に余裕があるパブリッシャーだけがより潤うのかも。https://t.co/ZHv9AZ4Oh5
