Google giving users a way to request removal of revenge porn from search results

Google has released a statement regarding its stance on revenge porn appearing in search results, and it’s siding with the victims in the situation. Similar to how Google handles other personal information showing up in its search engine, Google will be honoring requests from individuals to pull explicit content that the person didn’t want shared.

Unfortunately, this won’t do much for actually taking the content off the web, but it will make it exceptionally difficult to find since it won’t appear in the most popular search engine on the web. And sometimes, making things extremely difficult to find can be almost as good as deleting the original content.
