    How to get content removed from google.com

    Delisting on google.com removes a result, never a file. Two separate request types exist: a copyright request naming the work, and a personal-imagery request that does not require owning the copyright. Choosing the wrong one is the most common reason a request is rejected without explanation.

    google.com is an index, not a host. Delisting is the whole route.

    1. 1 · Curated host route — silent. No host_handlers row for google.com.
    2. 2 · RDAP abuse contact — silent. rdap.org returns no RDAP service for the .com registry. Probed 2026-09-04.
    3. 3 · Fallback address — resolves. abuse@google.com — the address the resolver falls back to. It may not be monitored.
    4. 4 · Network and search — resolves. Delisting is the route here — the index holds the result, not the file.

    What happens to what you type: nothing. The domain is matched against openDMCA's routing table in your browser. No request is made to google.com, no page is fetched, and the text is not stored or sent anywhere.

    Every removal route on this page is also listed on the google.com removal hub.

    What google.com is, from the removal side

    Google Search is a search surface. Surfaces reposted content for your stage name even when the host will not remove it. Copyright delisting in TCRP format, plus the separate personal-explicit-images route; results are re-checked hourly.

    Route openDMCA holds: Search delisting only. generate-google-bulk exports TCRP-format delisting requests; verify-google-delisting re-checks the URL hourly. openDMCA does not claim a working host contact for google.com. Delisting removes the result, not the file — the host route runs in parallel, never instead.

    Where a takedown for google.com stalls

    Delisting removes the result, not the file — the host route runs in parallel, never instead.

    openDMCA routes every URL through the Removal Graph — a live map of which hosts actually remove content, how fast, and through which channel — so each takedown takes the shortest path that has historically worked for that host. For google.com that means the rungs above are not run in a fixed order: a host with fewer than a quarter of its resolved notices ending in a removal, measured over ninety days with at least five samples, is fast-pathed straight to search delisting instead of spending a second email round on it.
