Google hacker update to combat piracy operations

Contents of the topic Toggle More than two years have passed since the last update to the pirate algorithm, and this update came after strong criticism accusing Google of not doing what is necessary to combat piracy. What is Pirate Update 2? New attacks on the old system: A new advertising system More than two years have passed since the last update to the pirate algorithm, and this update came after strong criticism accusing Google of not doing what is necessary to combat piracy.

The first appearance of this update was in August 2012, in a move aimed at punishing sites that publish copyrighted materials, but after the absence of follow-up to this update for two years, some voices began to rise. Google stands idly by in the face of these violations that occur on the web, and does not provide any updates that would prevent the spread of piracy in its current form. We received news yesterday that Google intends to launch a new update to the pirate algorithm (Pirate Update 2) that will significantly reduce the spread of pirated materials (series, movies, etc.) within two weeks from now.

Here are the details. What is Pirate Update 2? As with the previous updates - Penguin and Panda - the hacker update acts as a filter, through which Google screens all suspicious sites, and if it is proven that these sites actually carry out this type of unwanted practices, it will lower its ranking in the search results.

The reduction in the site's ranking may continue until the next update to this algorithm is issued. If the penalized site conforms to the criteria, it is possible that the punishment will be automatically removed from it. As of now, we do not know exactly how this next update will work, and you can follow this page because all upcoming updates will be listed here. Since the update has not been released yet, it is not possible to predict the violating sites that will be punished, but expectations indicate that there are many sites that drop from the first search results, especially torrent sites.

New attacks on the old system: monitoring

Danny Sullivan, founder of the Search Engine Land website, had some disputes between public opinion and Google, accusing the latter of being grossly negligent in combating the piracy that is taking place, and in response to it, the latest pirate update was not at the required level, and therefore work on it was stopped, and thinking about proposing an idea more capable of protecting property rights. This war of words led Google to update Pirates 2 and prepare for its launch within the next two weeks. A new advertising system. In the previous search result, we see the box that is centered between the search box and the first natural result for the HBO channel. One of its advantages is that this type of advertising will lead people to the most appropriate place to buy and watch this series. As a result, there are two main benefits: First: You will learn about the places that sell licensed products.

. Second: Google benefits from attracting more advertisers who want to sell their products. The side menu will also be developed to fit more with the form of the new update that will be launched, to become as follows: This side menu, on which tests were conducted throughout the previous period, lasted for a period of months, and it will be officially approved with the new pirate update.

Google adds that there will also be changes to auto-complete results in searches against sites that do not adhere to the conditions, as most violating auto-completion processes will be subject to strict measures. The coming year will witness many changes in the world of research and its forms, and it remains for us to follow the developments taking place very carefully.
