Even though I notice on the FAQs:
By checking a box on the opt out page, however, the author or
publisher can request that the Settlement Administrator ask Google not
to digitize (or, if already digitized, not to display any contents
from) the books or Inserts identified in the opt out form, Although
Google has no obligation under the Amended Settlement to comply with
such request, Google has advised the Settlement Administrator that it
is Google’s current policy to voluntarily honor such requests, if the
Books or Inserts are individually specified, are in copyright, and the
author or publisher has a valid and unchallenged copyright interest in
their Books and Inserts.
Which seems to mean that opting out can just be reversed, if Google
decides it wants to.
Meh indeed.
