Nutty Miro Heirs Attack Google

Yesterday Google changed its logo to commmemorate Joan Miro's birth. The Artists Rights Society, which includes the Miro family, loudly protested this "violation of rights" and Google took the logo down. This is preposterous; now even a tribute that could not possibly hurt anyone or do anything but HELP the Miro estate sell art is seen as a "rights" violation. I hope that Google will start fighting these absurd allegations so that the internet won't become so limited as to be useless.

UPDATE: Here is a great Digg thread with comments on this idiocy.

Why do people always assume that you are only in it for the money when you do something like Google did?

Or is it just easier to take pot-shots at the big guy than do something of your own?
