Suing Google?
 
How can this be a valid case? At the end of the day its a search engine. If its on the net then surely search engines will find it.

But you can request that you are not googled, and if the pages are post password, then you would also be suprised that they can be googled (though the article indicates thumbnails not detailed images).

Has this guy got a robots.txt file in place. 60 days and you are gone from google.
PHP Code:

noindex googlebot 

or something like that and you soon drop from the google search index.

Bah, that's crazy.

If Google can access any section of his site that isn't password protected, then it means his security is way too lax.

As SMHarman points out, it's very easy to instruct Google to not cache your pages.

That guy's an idiot (the owner of the site, not SMHarman ;) )
