Google to kill off 'View image' button in search

Google's deal this month with stock-photo agency Getty to end their legal spat carries one very noticeable provision: the "View image" button will be removed from Google Images search results.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed to The Register on Tuesday that the "View image" button will indeed disappear from all of Google's photo search pages from this week onwards as a result of this resolution with Getty. The copyright notice alongside each snap will also be made more obvious.

The deal comes after Getty lodged gripes with regulators in both the US and Europe over Google Images.

Would she be okay with him talking if he'd spent a fifth year in HS?

:lol: Eggsactly!

Plus I guess the whole 'freedom of speech' thang has an expiration date for some?

I mean, that's just one of a myriad of problems with her statement.

Yeah.

Though to be fair,

I was screaming for Curt Schilling to shut his trap a couple of years ago when he was spouting some pretty controversial nonsense.

So....I can't throw too many stones at her.

But were you railing against his right to say anything at all?

I think she’s on the rag...that’s the only logical explanation. Or she had a mediocre one sided relationship with a former basketball player (not nba) and she’s very bitter...she’s lonely...she needs a little attention...she needs a little love...she need a little kg!

By her logic, we should all just shut up and plumb, or shut up and teach or just shut up an run that small business ... oh, unless we (a) agree with her or (b) have attained a level of education she's ok with. Ridiculous. I guess we should leave all the decisions and analysis/thoughts/opinions of those decisions up to .... media personalities?

Geez, thanks for getting me all riled up @jammmmmliver

Mrs.kg01 would probably frown on that option. However, we all know you're single and ready to mingle. Hit her up on twitter, bro. I know they gave you them continuing education courses when you were in the pen. Surely that meets her criteria. :wink:

Hey guys thought I'd post this here. I've been listening to a podcast titled Atlanta Monster which covers the Atlanta child killings of the 80's. Think you might find it interesting, really some jaw dropping stuff.

I ended up seeing it in a matinee Sunday Afternoon.

And...wow.

Non-Spoiler review:

Spoiler:
I give it a B+. Andy Serkis is a lot of fun and Letitia Wright steals every scene she's in.

The film needed a bit more action and a lot more Michael B Jordan.

But it's really good. :clap: :cry: Heartbreaking, thought-provoking, empowering.

There were both tears and applause at the end from the suburban audience I saw it with.

Bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from ships, because they knew death was better than bondage.


^Powerful stuff for a "superhero movie".

Doping in Curling? Seriously :nonono:
Russian curler Alexander Krushelnitsky is facing a doping charge after winning a bronze medal at the Pyeongchang Olympics, a violation that has several other athletes competing at the games collectively confused.

Me and the kg's seent it. Really entertaining. @jammmmaliver's review was pretty spot on. Letita Wright is my new favorite actress. Whycome most of the best black actors are coming from Gr. Britain now?

Michael B Jordan is a bawse. Oakland shout-outs were nice.

Nice, we'll be seeing it this weekend.
He will always be 'Wallace' from The Wire to me. :D
