Please, re-read the above quoted notice. The power of copyright law is
universal according to the Burne Convention. Regardless of how you cite it,
it is still a copyright violation. Supplying the <http://etc.etc.etc> url is
not a violation because then the reader is reading the original, which is not
a copyright violation. You copied it, and that in itself IS the violation.
