Google makes it easier to remove your info, explicit images from search
2023-08-03 17:28

Google will soon make it easier to remove your personally identifiable information and explicit images from search results right from Google Search or the Google app.

The upgraded version will notify users if their personal information appears in Google Search results, allowing them to quickly remove it.

"Then, you can quickly request the removal of those results from Google - right in the tool. We'll also notify you when new results from the web containing your contact info pop up in Search, to give you added peace of mind."

To access the tool in the Google app, click on your Google account photo and choose "Results about you." Alternatively, you can visit goo.

Google also announced on Thursday that it will start allowing users to remove any intimate or explicit personal images from search results.

Brave Search adds private image and video search capability.
