Microsoft Wrongly Targeted Sites With Takedown Requests To Google

Discussion in 'Bing' started by Jaack_Dawson, Oct 8, 2012.

    Microsoft wrongly made automated requests for pages on the BBC website to be removed from Google due to "copyright infringements".
    The system also mistakenly requested the removal of content created by CNN, Wikipedia and the US government.
    The sites were wrongly identified by software which crawls the web for attempts to illegally share Microsoft content.
    Google has put the BBC on an approved list, so its pages were not affected.
    Other sites targeted - which included Buzzfeed, the Huffington Post and Techcrunch - were similarly unaffected.
    However, other sites like AMC Theatres and RealClearPolitics, who were also wrongly accused, had pages taken off Google search results.
    Microsoft has not yet commented on the issue.

    it seems it is big mistake done by them...:)

    That's why human kind came up with terms such as court, lawyers and justice. They even came up with something larger like congress. One's mistakes shouldn't suffer other ones. Specially one large company after smaller companies.
