It's not only France that's against Google Print, which seeks to digitize vast libraries of books. The head of British publishing house Bloomsbury warned fellow pulishers about the supposed evils of Google Print at a trade association meeting … just before a Google evangelist who has been talking up the program in Europe was scheduled to make a presentation. Quite an intro. It apparently was a classic anti-technology screed, focusing on the dangers of the unknown and advising the head-in-sand approach. "We are opening a Pandora's box, and we have no idea where it will lead." Who has any idea where anything will lead? Don't resist technology, old chap, or your customers will leave you behind.
