Grandparents destroying the media

I just loved this take on the recent controversy over Danish newspaper publishers' efforts to stop websites like Google News from linking to individual articles rather than a newspaper's homepage (link to the article via Martin Stabe):

"So if I buy a newspaper, cut out a specific article (like my grandmother always does when my school appears in the regional news) and send it to somebody else via mail that should be a crime?

"I always knew grandparents were destroying the media. " (Simon Columbus in the comments on the article).

Solana Larsen: "Simon: Your grandma should mail you the whole newspaper, and not tell you which page the article is on ;-)"
