    I don't see any threads about this... I just saw a post on another forum about Google having some serious tech issues... it seems it has banned itself!

    Sorry, no information is available for the URL www.google.com


    It also has PR0

    WTF?? :eek:

    It looks like someone found another loophole in the Google remove URL/site system. It looks similar to when Microsoft and Adobe were dropped from the index (they also went to PR0 just like Google is now)...

    It is a conspiracy, Yahoo and Google were both down at the same time for me today. Yahoo was down for at least 15 min., Goo for a few also.

    The issue of the thread will keep everyone from finding Google in the future, M$ should be happy.

    Maybe it is a Google worker who is going to start over at M$ soon.

    In May when a similar thing happened to Microsoft and Adobe, I remember their sites went to PRO, but what I don't recall is whether they also were removed from the index or not? Beacuse the PR0 thing is not really that strange a behaving with G these times. But the google.com domain name not in the index... that's quite something.

    It almost means they shouldnt allow reporting of URLs without being double checked.

    Do they really remove URLs without several people checking it out first? It seems pretty stupid to allow anonymous people to remove any domain they want to. If that's the case, they deserve to have their own site removed.
