Google Removed Over 59,000 Links In India, Compliance Report Shows

Koo - which is the first to publish the report - said that it received 5,502 community reports of which 1,253 were removed for infractions.

Search engine giant Google removed 59,350 links from its products, including YouTube, while homegrown social media company, Koo, acted on 1,253 of the 5,502 community reports, their compliance reports show. The reports were shared as per the requirement of the new digital rules that came into force over a month ago. In its compliance report, Google claims that it received 27,716 complaints in the month of April, a vast majority of which were copyright claims. The content removal includes all Google products including YouTube, but not search, it said. The report, however, does not include government requests. Additionally, the US-based tech major said that its future compliance reports will be delayed by two months to account for data processing.
