The Belgian newspaper group Copiepresse, which won a court ruling last year against Google for linking to its stories without permission, is now asking a court to award it up to $77 million in damages. It is also asking the court to force Google to publish the ruling against its linking practice in a conspicuous place on one of its Web sites for at least 20 days. Google has already stopped linking to the newspapers’ content through its Google News site and reached an agreement last year that would allow some content to be accessible through the main search engine.
