Cramer Shuts Down Blog Over Suit
Clayton Cramer has a post up announcing he's shutting down his blog permanently. (Link here.) He says it's because he was sued for copyright infringement from a newspaper web site, even though he linked back to the site and normally followed Fair Use guidelines. (Link here.) It's a cautionary tale for all bloggers. I've been following Clayton for quite a while, back in the days when he was Southern Idaho's most-read blogger (I think he's still the 2nd most read in the area), and while I didn't always agree with him, I did like his writing. I think it's fair to say that he's the only Idaho blogger whose work has been cited in a couple of recent SCOTUS decisions/Bubblehead, The Stupid Shall Be Punished.
Question: What do you make of this development in Idaho cyberspace?
