Presumably you think he should just suffer so that Google can make more profit without inconvenience.

  No, he should sue the sites which host the original article IF they're causing a harm. Since the articles are factually correct and dated appropriately, I don't think any harm is being done to him merely by the presence of those articles.

    Google searches discriminate based on the kind of information that is available about a person. Someone who has a strong online presence will look better than someone who does not because then these public records will be more prominent. That is a harmful form of discrimination.

      Someone who has a strong online presence will look better than someone who does not because then these public records will be more prominent. But you've failed to argue why this is something Google needs to take into considering when indexing the internet.

      > That is a harmful form of discrimination. What do you think should happen when someone searches "Tom Cruise"? Should it somehow show you all 14,724 people who happen to have that name, somehow cleverly giving equal visual weight to all of them? Not accidentally listing one of them first, etc? No, it's not harmful discrimination. This is a flawed line of thinking.
