Google releases data on requests for deletion from its search results.
According to the search giant, in 2016 most requests for deletion for copy right infringements were targeted towards content spread by 4shared.com.
It doesn’t mean that each request is also followed up upon by Google – URLs won’t be automatically deleted from its search results, once a request has been issued. Neither does it mean the content then is necessarily deleted on the respective site.
This chart shows top domains with most URLs that were requested to be deleted from Google search results 2016.
