Ask HN: Google search results
I was searching for Starbucks menu and was surprised to see the result directly within the Google search results. Nowadays, you can get most of your answers for your searches without having to leave Google.com.
I am assuming this type of service will increase in future and Google seems to like to keep the users within Google.com. Isn't this bad for the website owners and content creators?

"One court found framing to be a copyright infringement because the process resulted in an unauthorized modification of the linked site. (Futuredontics Inc. v. Applied Anagramic Inc., 45 U.S.P.Q. 2d 2005 (C.D. Cal. 1998).) In another case, The Washington Post, CNN, and several other news companies sued a website, TotalNews, which framed their news content. Under the terms of a settlement agreement, TotalNews agreed to stop framing and agreed to use text-only links.
While case law hasn’t developed definitive rules on the issue, a framer is more likely to be found liable for copyright (or trademark) infringement if copyrighted material is modified without authorization or if customers are confused about the association between the two sites or the source of a product or service."
