Copyright: Anger at Google image search 'peace deal' - BBC News

Anger at Google image search 'peace deal' - BBC News: "As part of its agreement with Getty Images, the "view image" button has been removed.

While it is still easy for people to download an image, people are now encouraged to trawl through the website it appears on to find it.

Google said the change would "help connect users and useful websites".

Critics said the change made Google Images harder to use
It also removed the "search by image" button, which was an easy way of finding larger copies of photographs.

Getty Images said Google had also agreed to display image copyright information more prominently next to results." 'via Blog this'
