Universal Pictures asks Google to remove from the search page IMDb, the address 127.0.0.1, and not only

Google, its search division, receives tens of thousands of requests every day to remove various links from search results. Such requests are mainly sent by copyright holders - recording studios, film studios and other companies. The Universal Pictures company is also very active.

Usually copyright holders ask the search engine to remove links that lead to sites with illegal content. But since such work is often automated, curiosities also happen. For example, the same Universal Pictures asks Google to block completely legal IMDb pages with information about studio films.

For example, does the studio ask you to exclude this page from search results, with <a href = " www.imdb.com/title/tt2820852 "? description of the movie "Fast and Furious 7". There is nothing illegal on this page, so it is not clear why the studio needed to make such a request.

In addition to the "Fast and the Furious", a similar requirement is made in relation to the film "Hacker." So the studio requires to exclude from the issuance of Google news article from the site Techdirt .

And the most interesting is the request for an exception from the search for the address 127.0.0.1:



All these inaccuracies were made by the French division of the company, which only recently began sending DMCA requests to search companies.

The good news is that Google, despite the huge number of such requests, is trying to carefully study them. As a result, no such request has yet been executed.
