A federal judge has ruled in favor of Google Inc. in the company’s courtroom battle with Viacom Inc. over alleged copyright violations on Google’s YouTube video service.
Judge Louis Stanton wrote in a ruling filed Wednesday that Google qualifies for so-called “safe harbor” protections against Viacom’s copyright infringement claims. Viacom had originally sued Google in 2007, alleging massive copyright infringement on YouTube and seeking $1 billion in damages.
