Girl Attacks Ex With Google Image Bomb
Posted in: Google, Miscellaneous Tech, search, Today's Chili, Weird NewsIf living well is the best revenge, then surely SEO must be in second place–with a bullet. Take, for example, this young woman, who followed a bad breakup by bombing Google Image search with unflattering photos her ex.
An image search for the ex-boyfriend now turns up the same headphone a slew of times, each with an accompanying unflattering LOLcat-styled caption, such as “To be or not to be? LOLJK I can’t read” (many of the others are a bit too hot for this here gadget blog).
The victim’s mom flipped out at the discovery, turning to the Google Webmaster Help message board for assistance, writing, in part,
My minor son’s ex-girlfriend took a copyrighted picture of him (we own copyright) and uploaded it more than 60 times to a website. On each image she wrote slanderous, defamatory and pornographic captions. The webmaster of the site states he removed the images 6 weeks ago, but Google Search still shows all the images. My son is so stressed out and embarrassed and we’ve done everything we can to get images
The mother added that she has attempted to get Google to take the photos down on account of copyright infringement, to no avail.
