Google Is Making It Easier To Remove Personal Info On Search (engadget.com) 3
Google has updated its Results About You tool with a redesigned hub, easier removal requests directly from Search, and the ability to refresh outdated results. Engadget reports: Today, the tech giant is announcing the latest changes, including a redesigned hub and the ability to update outdated search results to reflect the latest changes.
The redesign isn't only for show. You can now submit removal requests directly from Search with fewer actions by clicking or tapping the three dots beside a search result. If you manage to have content about you deleted or changed from a website but Google Search hasn't caught up, you can refresh the search, which will "recrawl the page and obtain the latest information." In other words, you can always see the most up-to-date results about you.
