Google looking to cut funds to illegal share sites via payment processors

Quote:
Google is rumored to be in talks with payment processors to see about disabling financial services to pirate and other illegal websites.

Google has been facing stiff criticism from copyright holders, who accuse the search giant of profitting off of pirate works and also supporting such sites directly through Adsense ads. Google had previously announced an effort to de-prioritize sites that receive a large number of copyright complaints but those efforts have, for the most part, not had a significant impact on search results.

Elsewhere, copyright holders are asking Google to increase the number of takedown notices they can file per day. saying that limitations on the number of takedowns they can file and the number of searches they can perform are stifling their efforts to battle piracy.
