For smaller sites, why would rights-holders bother trying to contact the site when they can just get it delisted from google?

- simonbrown 14y agoI never mentioned smaller sites. Still, if you mean a smaller site operating like YouTube, contacting them directly would allow it to be taken off the internet rather than just out of Google results. Still, they might contact Google as well, and thus harm their rank.
- Ralith 14y agoIndeed. There's no incentive for rightsholders not to hedge their bets, and so even well-meaning user-generated content sites will suffer. Unless they're google properties, presumably.
