The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has been evaluating the Google Books Settlement (aka "Settlement 2.0", a 300-page PDF). So far, EFF has posted five articles evaluating 1) pros and cons, 2) access, 3) competition, 4) privacy, and 5) censorship. The New York court is expected to decide whether to approve the revised settlement sometime in the first half of 2010. If you have not had time to read and fully comprehend the 300-page document, the following may prove to be helpful.
