The New Measures "We'll act on reliable copyright takedown requests within 24 hours," writes Kent Walker at the Google Public Policy Blog. "We will prevent terms that are closely associated with piracy from appearing in Autocomplete." Walker also notes that "we will be working with rightsholders to identify, and, when appropriate, expel violators from the AdSense program," and that "we will experiment to make authorised preview content more readily accessible in search results." Walker explains that "these changes build on our continuing efforts, such as Content ID, to give rightsholders choice and control over the use of their content."

Hmm... so they think people who pirate will have a harder time finding their content? IMO Piracy has widdled down almost completely to torrents, and really, you have to have some level of computer literacy to work torrents.
I think all this does is make Google less valuable to a large segment of its users. People who torrent aren't going to all of a sudden stop pirating stuff because Google doesnt show it hahaha.
