Celebrities Threaten Google with $100M Lawsuit for Hacked Nude Photo

From a linked article off this article...

>Moreover, Google lodges takedown notices it receives at ChillingEffects.org, so Verlander's demand now is public. That creates another issue because Google has in effect provided a road map for any voyeur looking for sites that refuse to remove stolen photos. Google has contributed to ChillingEffects.org for the sake of "transparency" — a funny word in the context of a now infamous privacy breach — but IP attorney Jon Steinsapir says Google "could use some discretion here for good manners and good taste."

No, Google cannot. Transparency that is not transparent does not work, every single removal demand will also come with a anti-transparency demand. While this is bad for a few people that have lost their privacy due to issues such as the listed in this article, the vast number of removal requests are by corporations seeking to control media they may or may not actually have rights to control and such actions need to be in the public eye.
