    Belgian newspapers - Copiepresse

    This very thing already happened in Belgium, last year.
    The belgian newspapers from Copiepresse successfully sued Google and got a court order where Google had to remove all links from Google News, to newspaper articles on their sites. Google complied to the order, and removed those links... also from their search engine, as that was what the order said. After that the newspapers cried foul, and that Google retaliated.
    History will repeat itself.
