Google Removes Sci-Hub Domains from U.S. Search Results Due to Dated Court Order (torrentfreak.com)

Google has removed dozens of new Sci-Hub domain names from its search results in the United States. Unlike typical DMCA takedowns, the removals were triggered by a dated court order that was not enforced for several years. This appears to be one of the first times Google has deindexed an entire pirate site in the U.S. based on a 'site blocking' style injunction.

Would recommend. Been using it for a couple years now, and it actually feels gross when I end up on Google.

You will hear shit from a small group on Lemmy about how they also use Yandex for search results, but it's a pretty hollow argument that keeps being used as some big "gotcha". But if that's a turn off for you, it is what it is.
