Google launches Copyright Takedown Requests transparency reports
http://j.mp/KuuPFD (Google Blogspot)
"Today we're expanding the Transparency Report with a new section on
copyright. Specifically, we're disclosing the number of requests we
get from copyright owners (and the organizations that represent them)
to remove Google Search results because they allegedly link to
infringing content. We're starting with search because we remove more
results in response to copyright removal notices than for any other
reason. So we're providing information about who sends us copyright
removal notices, how often, on behalf of which copyright owners and
for which websites. As policymakers and Internet users around the
world consider the pros and cons of different proposals to address the
problem of online copyright infringement, we hope this data will
contribute to the discussion."
