Can I remove search results from various search engines?
Yahoo used to use Google for searches. They recently purchased some search technology, and I believe they are or have discontinued including search results. Your stuff is cached all over the place. There are a bunch of search engines crawling the web, and there are other things like the Internet Archive seeking to maintain content even after it’s been changed. Most of them will honor your request to have a page dropped from their index, but I wouldn’t want to be the person that tried to track down every site to try to get it removed. When you say it and publish it, it’s been said and it’s been published. You can’t count on being able to unring that bell.
