According to the latest news the Google search engine has become the latest significant antipiracy weapon.Google in its Blog announced that now its taking on piracy this time by penalizing sites that have been receiving many complaints from copyright owners.
Sites who appears to have many copy rights complaints will be rank lower in Google but appear in Google.From past 2 years Google has been giving concessions to copyright owners but not as significant as this.
The biggest request was to block the sites accused of piracy from appearing in Google search results.According to the Google trend and policy the copy right users did not get that much.Google’s blog said that the motivation of its new move is to make Google a copyright police but to reduce sources of unauthorized sources of movies, music, and other digital goods. According to the blog, more than 4.3 million URLs were already penalized in the last 30 days alone.
Copyright users were able to appreciate Google's move but public knowledge and a public-knowledge group said that Google takes an antipiracy against the copyright users instead of abuse. The group said that while businesses and digital owners may benefit from the move, penalized sites getting Digital Millennium Copyright Act notices may create a new issue.These copyright useres or accused sites may not know or have the ability to challenge the notices sent to Google.The process may also be used by some to weed out competitors and rivals according to Public Knowledge.
