Unfortunately by the time you have found this lies about you will have spread to many sites often outside the courts jurisdiction. How do you get all those sites taken down?
Thus you have to make the indexer stop indexing you.
- thfuran 3y agoSo in order to prevent hypothetical misinformation, it is imperative to maintain the right to demand that accurate information not be spread?
- pasc1878 3y agoIt is not hypothetical - there are cases in Europe where the first entry in google for a person is an accusation against them that was proved false

- pasc1878 3y agoWhat else can you do - those sites are not under the courts jurasticion possibly in Russia, China, USA who do not honour requests from other countries either through spite or because their laws differ.
- dotnet00 3y agoNothing hypothetical about it, it's fairly common for even big news publishers like CNN to put out a headline that is so misleading that it's effectively a lie, and then either never follow up with a correction if the story turns out to be false or put out a much less publicized and still misleading "correction" such that the correction is buried in a few lines in the middle somewhere. If big publishers are doing this often on well known topics, it stands to reason that the much larger number of little publishers are also doing it with at least similar frequency for less well known topics.

- shitlord 3y agoDo you really have to get those sites taken down if they're not indexed by any major search engines? Very few people will be able to find them.
