Actually the reason why I probably have run into it quite a bit is because I use google's site filtering feature "Site:bakabt.me" for example to search for what I need, and a lot of times I find myself looking for mirrors of a download on a filehost, and everyone knows how much filehosts get DMCA'd.

You shouldn't knock google points, I doubt it has much control when a DMCA claim is made (Youtube for thousands of examples)

Yeah it doesn't dirty my image or opinion of Google in any way. It'd be ridiculous to expect them to post hilarious "fuck you" letters on their home page every time someone asked them to take something down like TPB or something. I mean, they do have a legitimate business to run haha. If they didn't comply to requests period it would kind of be like the honor student who gets drunk and tries to fight people for you at the bars  :laugh:

the omitted search results arent that big a deal, did any of you read through the new privacy policy that is more like a "we're gonna keep track of everything you do policy".  I mean, I get what they're doing, and they may have good intentions behind it, but I have problems with people keeping track of stuff like (click to show/hide)    details of how you used our service, such as your search queries.
    telephony log information like your phone number, calling-party number, forwarding numbers, time and date of calls, duration of calls, SMS routing information and types of calls.
    Internet protocol address.
    device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware settings, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and referral URL.
    cookies that may uniquely identify your browser or your Google Account.Now even if I wasnt paranoid, shit like that has a negative impact on my browsing performance as well, and dammit my shitty internet is slow enough already.

omissions on google isn't really a sad news, you could pretty much bypass it by manipulating what you've put into the search bar like adding a few more words on it.

though i tried googling "baka" and that statement wasn't there, i guess they took it out?

Also if you look close enough on the page you'll see that one of the titles the DMCA was filed for was

Making the word "Baka" show up on the page just under 100 times.
Mystery solved  :police:
