Delete Images from Google Search Results Easily

Removing images from Google that you do not own can be challenging but is possible under certain circumstances. If an image infringes on your privacy, is defamatory, or violates Google’s policies, you can file a removal request through Google’s support channels. You’ll need to provide evidence that the image violates Google’s guidelines, such as proof of harm or privacy breaches.

Hi, Angel. I saw your post about the dark side of kidfluencing and how much can be covered up. I'm not in the industry, but I have extensively researched it from top to bottom. I also know many people within it, so I have some insight to share.

A significant part of this issue is the legal power involved, which I think is pretty self-explanatory. Specifically, there are copyright laws and the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act). This act means that if someone posts a celebrity’s livestream, video, or any other copyrighted content (including music, images, etc.), the owner of that content, or their legal team, can have it taken down very quickly. The person who posted the copyrighted content will be required to remove it.

Another issue is defamation threats. A celebrity or influencer, along with their legal team, could turn a situation into a cease and desist or threaten a defamation lawsuit, even if it might not actually qualify as defamation. The mere threat can be intimidating, especially since they are often willing to follow through.

SEO (search engine optimization) manipulation is also extremely common in the industry. Individuals can pay to bury stories or links that could damage someone’s image or brand. This is done by flooding search engines with positive articles and working with companies that specialize in digital reputation management to remove unwanted links.

Celebrities and influencers also have significant platform influence, which allows them and their legal teams to eliminate anything undesirable. If you're “important" enough, you have access to tools and resources that others don’t.

Distractions also play a role. Scandals often fade when a celebrity or influencer is promoting something. Scandal scrubbing is a common PR tactic, typically paired with a media storm. Nothing on the internet is truly permanent if you have power, money, and good connections.

There are entire secret relationships and affairs that are deeply protected for less-than-noble reasons, alongside leaks and embarrassing material such as sex tapes. If a celebrity (like H or L) didn’t want their leaks online, they could be removed almost instantly. Legal documents, old tweets, and problematic posts can be erased, and even fan theories and conspiracies can be scrubbed from existence. (Interesting 🤨) though I think it’s clear H&L probably don’t want the “theories” about Larry to die. If you want insight about what COULD be covered with HL specifically I can give you some info there too.

I hope this gives you some useful insight. ❤️

hello!!

this is a super super interesting read, thankyou.

i'm familiar with seo, so that part is very intriguing. all it would take is to throw a heap of $$ at some seo optimisation services and you'd be able to boost all the articles you want to the first pages of google.

i'd absolutely be interested to hear more about things being scrubbed from the internet. i've always wondered, if there was a leak or something that could expose h&l or any other closeted celebrity or secret relationship- what would happen? same with someone breaking an nda or something. obviously i would never want them to be outed but its a possibility.

'fan theories and conspiracies can be scrubbed from existence' -> makes me think of blogs that have been deleted from here....

thankyou again for sending this in!

i absolutely love the below quote so im going to make it bold.

"Nothing on the internet is truly permanent if you have power, money, and good connections."

Any peeps in Florida/down south! In light of many people likely losing power, here is a friendly tip if you want to wash your hair etc!

These are awapuhi (shampoo) "bitter" ginger; also known as the "beehive flower", "pinecone flower" or "corn flower" as I like to sometimes call them.

I have seen them grow in nice big clusters in different parts of Florida (and some other places too). These flowers have helped out the past couple of years when we don't have running water during outages and storms; but we want to stay clean!

(images found on Google)

HOW TO IDENTIFY:

They are rather obvious plants, but some come in different colors! The "unripe" ones are usually green, and their nectar smells slightly bitter but still works the same as a fully mature plant. Just remember to be a bit more gentle on these, and the tiny blossoms they may have on them.

If you want a sweeter, more perfume flowery-type scent: a ripe flower can range from deep pink/red (like these images), though I've read that some can get darker.

WHAT THE NECTAR IS/HOW TO USE IT:

The liquid "nectar" can range from thick to watery--but!--you can put it in your hair and let it dry (it does dry like water) and it will help keep your hair shiny and lightly fragranced.

I grow my own, but if you see them, try to collect the nectar in things like bottles or cups, and apply as much as you like/need for your hair. I recommend holding your head over a sink or tub to keep it from getting everywhere while you cleanse.

(It CAN make your eyes sting if you get it in them, so be careful!)

You can also freeze them in ice cube trays or small Tupperware for later use to preserve the quality of the nectar as it CAN go sour at room temperature if left out for too long (ask me how I know THAT lol). I usually only harvest a few ounces and put it in the fridge for immediate use a few times a week.

HOW TO HARVEST:

DO NOT remove the flower or cut it, as they do not grow quickly and you will kill the plant that much quicker. Try to avoid bending the stalks as well. As we approach the end of their season, I hope people can get a lot of use from these little guys in the wake of the storm!

Make sure to wear rubber/latex/vinyl gloves if it feels icky (some of them also have tiny barbs. While not painful, they can be annoying to graze while milking the plant). With all the rain incoming, these flowers will be nice and plump--full of nectar!

What you do is lightly squeeze in an upward motion and make sure the nectar drips into your container or hand (a funnel greatly increases chances of a better collection). You can strain it through a coffee filter to remove any unwanted "pulp", bugs or dirt. Then use as you please!

The nectar also soothes things like bug bites, cracked skin etc (at least in my personal experiences with it) so you can also use it for that! Just remember to do an allergy test just in case you're worried about that.

These are uses I can confirm myself that work! I love harvesting bare-handed because it always leaves my skin so soft and buttery!

Stay safe out there from this storm, everybody.

And have fun jerking off your flowers aksksklsdl

A few weeks ago, a Google search for “deepfake nudes jennifer aniston” brought up at least seven high-up results that purported to have explicit, AI-generated images of the actress. Now they have vanished.

Google product manager Emma Higham says that new adjustments to how the company ranks results, which have been rolled out this year, have already cut exposure to fake explicit images by over 70 percent on searches seeking that content about a specific person. Where problematic results once may have appeared, Google’s algorithms are aiming to promote news articles and other nonexplicit content. The Aniston search now returns articles such as “How Taylor Swift's Deepfake AI Porn Represents a Threat” and other links like a Ohio attorney general warning about “deepfake celebrity-endorsement scams” that target consumers.

“With these changes, people can read about the impact deepfakes are having on society, rather than see pages with actual nonconsensual fake Images,” Higham wrote in a company blog post on Wednesday.

The ranking change follows a WIRED investigation this month that revealed that in recent years Google management rejected numerous ideas proposed by staff and outside experts to combat the growing problem of intimate portrayals of people spreading online without their permission.

While Google made it easier to request removal of unwanted explicit content, victims and their advocates have urged more proactive steps. But the company has tried to avoid becoming too much of a regulator of the internet or harm access to legitimate porn. At the time, a Google spokesperson said in response that multiple teams were working diligently to bolster safeguards against what it calls nonconsensual explicit imagery (NCEI).

The widening availability of AI image generators, including some with few restrictions on their use, has led to an uptick in NCEI, according to victims’ advocates. The tools have made it easy for just about anyone to create spoofed explicit images of any individual, whether that’s a middle school classmate or a mega-celebrity.

In March, a WIRED analysis found Google had received more than 13,000 demands to remove links to a dozen of the most popular websites hosting explicit deepfakes. Google removed results in around 82 percent of the cases.

As part of Google’s new crackdown, Higham says that the company will begin applying three of the measures to reduce discoverability of real but unwanted explicit images to those that are synthetic and unwanted. After Google honors a takedown request for a sexualized deepfake, it will then try to keep duplicates out of results. It will also filter explicit images from results in queries similar to those cited in the takedown request. And finally, websites subject to “a high volume” of successful takedown requests will face demotion in search results.

“These efforts are designed to give people added peace of mind, especially if they’re concerned about similar content about them popping up in the future,” Higham wrote.

Google has acknowledged that the measures don’t work perfectly, and former employees and victims’ advocates have said they could go much further. The search engine prominently warns people in the US looking for naked images of children that such content is unlawful. The warning’s effectiveness is unclear, but it’s a potential deterrent supported by advocates. Yet, despite laws against sharing NCEI, similar warnings don’t appear for searches seeking sexual deepfakes of adults. The Google spokesperson has confirmed that this will not change.

"Updates to Google policies on personal explicit images mean that users will be able to remove non-consensual and explicit imagery of themselves that they no longer wish to be visible in searches.

The update means that even if an individual created and uploaded explicit content to a website, and no longer wishes for it to be available on search, they will be able to request to remove it from Google search. The forms to submit requests have also been made more simple. The policy does not apply to images users are currently and actively commercialising.

The policy also applies to websites containing personal information."

Boost Store Performance with Shopify Speed Optimization Services

Today, speed and immediacy matter in a digital marketplace. On a sluggish Shopify store, sellers lose prospects, consumers have bad experiences, and a low Google ranks are assigned. This is where Shopify speed optimization services come in. At Adskylar, we help store owners increase their website speeds, leading to higher load times and customer satisfaction.

What Are Shopify Speed Optimization Services?

Shopify speed optimization services are professional techniques and tools used to increase the loading speed and performance of your Shopify store. They deal mainly with slow-loading pages so that fewer visitors bounce away and have a good shopping experience instead. 

Some of the major areas in Shopify speed optimization include:

Image compression

Remove unwanted apps and codes

Reduce redirects

Lightweight themes

Browser caching

Lazy load for images and videos

These will ensure your store performs smoothly on desktops and mobiles.

Benefits of Speeding Up Your Shopify Store

There are multiple benefits to remember when considering investing in Shopify speed optimization services:

1. Enhanced User Experience

Being able to navigate the site quickly without product load delays will serve to enhance user satisfaction and engagement.

2. Higher Conversion Rate

Conversion happens when speed is a parameter. A fast store generates sales as faster-store users are more inclined to conclude their purchases rather than giving in frustration and abandoning the cart.

3. Better SEO Ranking

Page speed is considered by Google as one of the ranking factors. The stores that load faster are more likely to stay at a higher position in the search results, bringing more organic traffic.

4. Lower Bounce Rate

Slow loading persuades a visitor to leave even before making his explorations. On the contrary, a store speedy in its load will hold them longer and encourage viewing more products. 

5. Faster Mobile Experience

Since the mobile phone is in use by the majority of buyers, speed optimization will guarantee an equally responsive experience for your store on both smartphones and tablets.

Want to Remove a YouTube Video? Here’s the Real Truth About Taking Down Content

Let me guess - you’ve stumbled upon a YouTube video that absolutely should not be online. Maybe it’s old, embarrassing, misleading, or straight-up damaging to your personal or professional reputation. You’re now frantically Googling things like remove YouTube video, delete my video from YouTube, or take down video from YouTube. I hear you. And you’re not alone.

In today’s world, where every click, comment, and upload leaves a digital footprint, what ends up online doesn’t always stay in your control. But here’s the good news: you’re not helpless. You actually can take steps to remove YouTube content, you just need the right strategy and, sometimes, a little help from the pros.

Before we dive into how, let’s clear up one thing: deleting a video isn’t always as simple as hitting a “delete” button. If you uploaded it, sure, you can go into your account and click Delete YouTube uploaded video. Done, right? Well… not always. Copies get shared. People repost it. And sometimes, it’s not even your video, it’s someone else’s, and it’s harming your image.

That’s where things get complicated, and where EraseNegativeLinks comes in.

I’ve worked with dozens of clients who’ve tried everything from flagging the video, reporting it, and even pleading with the uploader to just take it down. And honestly? That rarely works.

And let’s be real, sometimes, this isn’t just about a video. It’s about your career. Your relationships. Your peace of mind.

How fast does your website load? The speed of the website is very important to visitors and business owners. Do you know search engine, Google takes page speed into account when ranking websites? In 2010, Google included site speed in search rankings. If your site responds slowly, the Google rankings of your site would drop. WordPress is a great publishing tool and platform, but its sluggish performance may impact your business and cause a loss of potential customers and subscribers. So what can you do better to boost your site performance? Here are ten quick fixes that will improve the load time of the site.Good HostDo you know 40 percent of website visitors leave a website that takes more than 3 seconds to load? Poor website performance and page load speed adversely impact any business and end up losing potential sales. For business, it’s critical to have their websites stay up and running all the time with great performance, security and reliability. A fast web host can give your website great speed boost and responsiveness. It’s not only good for your business and website visitors, but also helpful for SEO (search engine optimization). If your web host is decelerating your business, it’s time to replace. Here is a list of trusted and fast hosting providers for wordpress.If you can afford, you must also consider dedicated hosting options.Caching PluginThere are many ways, one can improve the speed of a WordPress website, one of the techniques is caching. A cache is an interim storage place where developers store data of a particular website. When the visitors return to pages they have recently visited, the data from the cache files are utilized to load up the pages rather than downloading it again. The stored data take some place and slow down your website’s performance. You can manage to cache, simply by installing WordPress plugins. At the same time installing many plugins may add lots of trash to your site and site files, therefore, remove the unwanted or inactive plugins. One of the most popular caching solutions is W3 Total Cache and WP Super Cache.Content Delivery Networks (CDN) A content delivery network (CDN) is a distributed servers system that replicates your site on all of their location nodes. When the visitors request your site, the closest server location will serve the request. A CDN clone all the static files including CSS, JavaScript, media files, images and more, and allow visitors to download them as quick as possible by serving the files on closest servers.You can speed up your WordPress website with a Content Delivery Network. The content will be delivered faster to the user because the CDN server will be closer to the user geographically. It also protects from traffic spikes. CDNs are usually not very cheap however you can always create your own low cost CDN using open source software.Compressing ImagesA large number of images on a website not only slows down your web page to a crawl but also takes bandwidth. In general, one should use JPEG for photographic images and GIF or PNG-8 for text. Another option is compression of images; you can resize images, but make sure the quality of the image is not comprised. You can use the WP SmushIt plugin, WPMU DEV WordPress Smush API. In case, you don’t want to install this plugin, you can always use free programs such as Paintshop Pro, Gimp or Image Compressor.Optimizing Your DatabaseWordPress uses the database to store web posts, web pages, comments, trashed items, Pingbacks, settings and plugin information. The entire database-driven site requires optimization of the database as it automatically saves everything. Whenever a web page is reloaded it reads your database. If the database is heaving, it may take a longer time to display the information. It’s very important to optimize your database because the page load speed affects your business performance accordingly. To manage the database optimization, you can always use the WP-Optimize plugin or WP-DB Manager,

these options not only allows you to optimize your database but program next regular database optimization. Choose a Good Theme Choosing the right theme framework is very important as it is also one of the factors influencing the speed of your WordPress Website. Before you apply any theme, watch the load speed of the theme’s demo page. Many WordPress themes are extremely slow and poorly coded result in slowing your site to load. Nowadays, I recommend people to apply Twenty Sixteen- the newest default WordPress Theme. The Twenty Sixteen theme is built on a responsive approach that means all your images are a perfect fit, you can watch them resize on any of your devices. Some good and popular themes can found on ThemeForest. Pick themes that have high rating and good user review comments.Enable Keep-AliveKeep-Alive is a way to allow the same single Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection for HTTP conversation instead of opening a new request. It not only allows the user’s system to download multiple files without repetitively requesting for permission but saves bandwidth as well. To enable Keep-Alive, just copy and paste the code Header set Connection keep-alive in your .htaccess file.Use a Quick Caching PluginCaching is an important process as it provides the web content to the visitors, without requesting it from the database every time they send a request. As we have discussed earlier, using a caching plugin simplifies the process and serves the content to the visitors from the cache. You can use W3 Total Cache plugin to cache the content. It reduces a lot of processing on the servers.Optimizing CSS, Java Scripts Files Merging many small CSS files and JavaScript files into one big file reduce request on the server. The compressing of files will improve the speed to retrieve the files. You can use sub domains to share the load, lower the number of dynamic HTTP calls. Secondly, use external scripts in your header.php file, this allows the browser to cache the script. You can use the WP Minify (automated approach) or the YUI Compressor (manual approach) to minify your site CSS and JavaScript files. Optimizing Your HomepageThere are many ways you can optimize the structure the homepage, you can post short excerpts instead of full posts. Secondly, bring down the number posts displayed on the Home page, displaying 5 to7 posts would be great. Get rid of inactive widgets and plugins, also, remove unwanted sharing widgets from the home page. Remove Unwanted PluginsYou may want to cleanup unused or less used plugins. Sometimes too many plugins affect the wordpress performance. Also avoid installing plugins from untrusted developers. One bad plugin can ruin your whole website performance.ConclusionToday, web users want websites to be lightning fast. After applying these simple measures and tips, you can make a great difference in your WP website speed. WordPress is a great platform, with some hacks and add-on you can actually pick up excellent website speed. Optimizing your website would also encourage visitors to revisit the website and deliver a great user experience.Saurabh Sharma is a dedicated Wordrpess developer and content writer at Girnar Software SEZ Private Limited – a company that offers best Wordpress CMS Development Services in India & USA.

its so easy to just, not use stuff?

i never used anything past an ipod/itunes for my music because everything since has felt like both a downgrade and a bad deal. I too use corded head phones because you don't have to fucking think about them, just plug and put on. and seems plenty others feel the same, because so many fuckers just say fuck it and listen to youtube vids full volume in public rather then deal with that 💲earbud💲 shit

you don't have to use a smart phone, flip phones are still available and crazy cheap. In fact in asia both flip phones and fax machines are still super common place

you can install extensions to "return" things that have been removed from the internet experience, you can block ai descriptions if you can find just the right thing to install. My friends and coworkers complain about ads on their windows 11 and i'm just like huh? cos i installed something ages ago that killed that shit day one

like you don't fucking have to go along with all the new shit that gets thrown at us because its there, you don't have to just accept it and go dam this sucks but thats progress and it doesn't make you some weird anti technology luddite if you don't want to use it even tho everyone around you is

i remember when around 2010, 3d began getting crammed into everything and when i complained at how bad and shitty and unwanted it was, people were just like WELL THIS IS THE FUTURE NOW YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT IT BECAUSE THEY SPENT ALL THIS TIME AND MONEY ON THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY AND ITS NOT GOING AWAY SO SHUT UP

but guess wat

and now they doing the same with the AI crap, desperately shoving it into everything they can so that people will actually use it, get dependent on it, and want it enough to actually pay for it

because you know they're gonna pull a "Nintendo Online" in the near future, got you good and addicted to those great online multiplayer games then WHOOPS PAY UP SLUTS

and i can see the desperation more and more to get people to use ai and chatgpt outside of cheating at homework, cus see this?

like two weeks ago that "AI Mode" invited itself to the top of my google search page. I have repeatedly had to swerve at the last second not to click it when i'm searching for images and going back and forth to "All"

today this fucking thing started flashing colors at me every time i search anything. Its the most desperate PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE USE THIS PLEASE GOD thing, and i've been on the internet since uh

this. So i've seen my share of desperate internet "please engage with this" flails

ANYWAYS, no

no i don't have to, u can't make me, and i will outlive u like i have every other stupid ITS HERE AND EVERYWHERE AND NEVER GOING AWAY THIS IS THE NEW NORMAL GRANDPA superfluous tech fad

old man ted talk over

"I know chatgpt is bad but you just don't really have any choice" you literally do. Don't use it. Have some moral backbone.

In early 2022, two Google policy staffers met with a trio of women victimized by a scam that resulted in explicit videos of them circulating online—including via Google search results. The women were among the hundreds of young adults who responded to ads seeking swimsuit models only to be coerced into performing in sex videos distributed by the website GirlsDoPorn. The site shut down in 2020, and a producer, a bookkeeper, and a cameraman subsequently pleaded guilty to sex trafficking, but the videos kept popping up on Google search faster than the women could request removals.

The women, joined by an attorney and a security expert, presented a bounty of ideas for how Google could keep the criminal and demeaning clips better hidden, according to five people who attended or were briefed on the virtual meeting. They wanted Google search to ban websites devoted to GirlsDoPorn and videos with its watermark. They suggested Google could borrow the 25-terabyte hard drive on which the women’s cybersecurity consultant, Charles DeBarber, had saved every GirlsDoPorn episode, take a mathematical fingerprint, or “hash,” of each clip, and block them from ever reappearing in search results.

The two Google staffers in the meeting hoped to use what they learned to win more resources from higher-ups. But the victim’s attorney, Brian Holm, left feeling dubious. The policy team was in “a tough spot” and “didn’t have authority to effect change within Google,” he says.

His gut reaction was right. Two years later, none of those ideas brought up in the meeting have been enacted, and the videos still come up in search.

WIRED has spoken with five former Google employees and 10 victims’ advocates who have been in communication with the company. They all say that they appreciate that because of recent changes Google has made, survivors of image-based sexual abuse such as the GirlsDoPorn scam can more easily and successfully remove unwanted search results. But they are frustrated that management at the search giant hasn’t approved proposals, such as the hard drive idea, which they believe will more fully restore and preserve the privacy of millions of victims around the world, most of them women.

The sources describe previously unreported internal deliberations, including Google’s rationale for not using an industry tool called StopNCII that shares information about nonconsensual intimate imagery (NCII) and the company’s failure to demand that porn websites verify consent to qualify for search traffic. Google’s own research team has published steps that tech companies can take against NCII, including using StopNCII.

The sources believe such efforts would better contain a problem that’s growing, in part through widening access to AI tools that create explicit deepfakes, including ones of GirlsDoPorn survivors. Overall reports to the UK’s Revenge Porn hotline more than doubled last year, to roughly 19,000, as did the number of cases involving synthetic content. Half of over 2,000 Brits in a recent survey worried about being victimized by deepfakes. The White House in May urged swifter action by lawmakers and industry to curb NCII overall. In June, Google joined seven other companies and nine organizations in announcing a working group to coordinate responses.

Right now, victims can demand prosecution of abusers or pursue legal claims against websites hosting content, but neither of those routes is guaranteed, and both can be costly due to legal fees. Getting Google to remove results can be the most practical tactic and serves the ultimate goal of keeping violative content out of the eyes of friends, hiring managers, potential landlords, or dates—who almost all likely turn to Google to look up people.

A Google spokesperson, who requested anonymity to avoid harassment from perpetrators, declined to comment on the call with GirlsDoPorn victims. She says combating what the company refers to as nonconsensual explicit imagery (NCEI) remains a priority and that Google’s actions go well beyond what is legally required. “Over the years, we’ve invested deeply in industry-leading policies and protections to help protect people affected by this harmful content,” she says. “Teams across Google continue to work diligently to bolster our safeguards and thoughtfully address emerging challenges to better protect people.”

In an interview with WIRED, a Google search product manager overseeing anti-harm work says blocking videos using hashes is challenging to adopt because some websites don’t publish videos in a way that search engines can compare against. Speaking on condition of anonymity, she says Google has encouraged explicit websites to address that. She adds that there’s generally more for Google to do but refutes the allegation that executives had held up the work.

Advocates of bolder action by Google point to the company’s much tighter restrictions on searching for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) as evidence it could do much more. Typing “deepfake nudes kids” into Google prompts a warning that such content is illegal and ultimately directs users to news articles and support groups. Google also finds and blocks from its results almost 1 million new CSAM-containing webpages annually.

A recent Google search for “deepfake nudes jennifer aniston” yielded seven results purporting to offer just that. The search engine offered no warning or resources in response to the query, despite nearly every US state and many countries having criminalized unpermitted distribution of intimate content of adults. Google declined to comment on the lack of a warning.

The product manager says comparisons to CSAM are invalid. Virtually any image of a naked child is illegal and can be automatically removed, she says. Separating NCEI from consensual porn requires some indication that the content was shot or distributed without permission, and that context often isn’t clear until a victim files a report and a human analyzes it. But the manager wouldn’t directly answer whether Google has tried to overcome the challenge.

Adam Dodge, founder of advocacy and education group Ending Tech-Enabled Abuse, says that until Google proactively removes more NCII, victims have to be hypervigilant about finding and reporting it themselves. That’s “not something we should put on victims,” he says. “We’re asking them to go to the location where they were assaulted online to move past the trauma.”

Google started accepting removal requests for search results leading to nudity or sex in 2015 if the content was intended to be private and was never authorized to be published, according to its policy. That went largely unchanged until 2020, when the company added that being in an “intimate state” qualified.

A New York Times column that year triggered Google executives to dedicate resources to the issue, organizing projects, including one codenamed Sparrow, to help victims keep content off search for good, three former employees say. The product manager confirmed that executives at times have pushed teams to improve Google’s handling of NCEI.

Google made its takedown form friendlier to use, understand, and access, the sources say. The search giant axed legalese and outdated use of the term “revenge porn,” since porn is generally viewed as consensual. The company added instructions on submitting screenshots and greater detail on the review process.

The form became accessible by clicking the menu that appears next to every search result. Requests rose about 19-fold in one early test, one source says. A second source says that it has become among Google’s most-used forms for reporting abuse and that, after the edits, a far greater percentage of requests resulted in removal of results. Google disputes these figures, but it declined to share comprehensive data on NCEI.

Government-mandated transparency reports show Google has removed most of the nearly 170,000 search and YouTube links reported for unwanted sexual content in South Korea since December 2020, the earliest data available, and nixed nearly 300 pieces of content in response to 380 complaints from users in India since May 2021. The limited data suggest Google is finding more reports credible than its smaller rival in search Microsoft, which took action in 52 percent of the nearly 8,400 cases it received globally for Bing and other services from 2015 through June 2023.

Launched in late 2021, the StopNCII system has amassed a database of over 572,000 hashed photos and videos and blocked that media from being shared more than 12,000 times across 10 services, including Instagram and TikTok. Google hasn’t adopted the tool to block content from search due to concerns about what’s actually in the database, according to three sources.

To protect victims’ privacy, StopNCII doesn’t review content they report, and hashes reveal nothing about the underlying content. Google is worried that it could end up blocking something innocent, the sources say. “We don’t know if it’s just an image of a cupcake,” one of them says. The sources add that Google also has opted against bankrolling a system it considers better, despite internal suggestions to do so.

The Google spokesperson declined to comment on StopNCII, but in April the company told UK lawmakers who questioned Google about its decision not to use the tool that it had “specific policy and practical concerns about the interoperability of the database,” without elaborating.

Internally, Google workers have come up with some bold ideas to improve takedowns. Employees have discussed booting explicit websites, including porn companies, from search results unless they are willing to assure that their content is consensual, according to four sources. The idea hasn’t been adopted. Google’s search unit has shied away from setting rules on a thorny and taboo subject like sexual imagery, three sources say. “They don’t want to be seen as regulators of the internet,” one former staffer says.

Because Google sends significant traffic to explicit websites, it could force them to take stricter measures. About 15 percent of image searches and up to half of video searches among the billions Google receives daily are related to porn, says one former staffer, figures the company declined to comment on. “Google holds the keys to the kingdom,” the source says. Meanwhile, few others are stepping in. US lawmakers haven’t passed proposed legislation to impose consent checks on online uploads. And some popular services for sharing explicit content, such as Reddit and X, don’t require users to submit proof of subjects’ consent.

Porn producers, who collect identity information from performers as required by US law, support the sharing of a consent signal with search engines, says Mike Stabile, spokesperson for the industry trade body Free Speech Coalition. “Major adult sites already monitor and block NCII much more aggressively than mainstream platforms,” he says.

The Google spokesperson declined to comment on the consent idea but points to an existing penalty: Google last December began demoting—but not blocking—search results for websites that come up in “a high volume” of successful takedown requests.

The Google product manager and the spokesperson contend that the search team already has taken big steps over the past three years to ease the burden on survivors of image-based sexual abuse. But WIRED’s investigation shows that some improvements have come with caveats.

A system Google introduced that tries to automatically remove search links when previously reported content resurfaces on new websites doesn’t work on videos or altered images, and two sources say Google hadn’t dedicated staff to improving it. “It absolutely could be better, and there isn’t enough attention on how it could really solve victims’ problems,” one says. The spokesperson says staff are assigned to enhance the tool.

Another system called known victim protection tries to filter out results with explicit images from search queries similar to those from past takedown requests, the two sources say. It is designed to not disrupt results to legitimate porn and generally reduces the need for victims to stay vigilant for new uploads. But Google has acknowledged to South Korean regulators that the system isn’t perfect. “Given the dynamic and ever-changing nature of the web, automated systems are not able, 100 percent of the time, to catch every explicit result,” the company writes in its transparency reports.

In one of its biggest shifts, Google last August abandoned its policy of declining to remove links to content that included signs that it had been captured with consent. For years, if Google determined from the imagery and any audio that the subject knew they were being recorded without any signs of coercion or distress, it would reject the takedown ask unless the requester provided ample evidence that it had been published without consent. It was a “super-mushy concept,” one of the former employees says.

That same source says staff persuaded executives to update the policy in part by describing the importance of letting people who had become adult performers on OnlyFans out of financial necessity to later revoke their consent and shred any ties to sex work. The Google spokesperson didn’t dispute this.

The Washington, DC-based National Center on Sexual Exploitation, an anti-porn group that’s become an authority on image-based sexual abuse, argues that even after the revision, Google is falling short. It wants Google to automatically honor all takedown requests and put the burden on websites to prove there was consent to record and publish the disputed content. The Google spokesperson says that potential policy updates are constantly considered.

In the eyes of advocates, Google is being nowhere near as resourceful or attentive as it could or should be. Brad Gilde of Gilde Law Firm in Houston says he came away disappointed when his client won a headline-grabbing $1.2 billion judgment against an ex-boyfriend last August but then couldn’t get Google to remove a highly ranked search link to a sexually explicit audio recording of her on YouTube. The upload, which included the victim’s name and drew over 100 views, came down last month only after WIRED inquired.

Developing a reliable AI system to proactively identify nonconsensual media may prove impossible. But better keeping an ear out for big cases shouldn’t be too complicated, says Dan Purcell, a victim who founded removal company Ceartas DMCA. Google employees had a proposal on this issue: The company could establish a priority flagger program—as it has for other types of problematic content, including CSAM—and formally solicit tips from outside organizations such as Purcell’s that monitor for NCII. But staffing to administer the idea never came through. “​​Google is the No. 1 discoverability platform,” Purcell says. “They have to take more responsibility.” The Google spokesperson declined to comment.

DeBarber, the removal consultant who spoke with Google alongside his clients victimized by GirlsDoPorn, did a search for one of them this month while on the phone with WIRED. No links surfaced to videos of her, because DeBarber has spent over 100 hours getting those pages removed. But one porn service was misusing her name to lure in viewers to other content—a new result DeBarber would have to ask Google to remove. And through a different Google search, he could access a problematic website on which people can look up videos of his client.

Harassers regularly text that client links to her NCII, a frustrating reminder of how her past has yet to be erased. “They want to be out of sight and out of mind,” DeBarber says of his clients. “We’re heading in the right direction.” But he and survivors are counting on Google to help knock out the offenders for good. "A lot more could have been done by Google and still could be."
