Google ordered to block images of Max Mosley "Nazi Orgy"

I think that is the crux of the problem here: by attempting to use a court to force a search engine to stop showing his pictures, Mr. Mosley begs the question of whether he is trying to pretend the party never happened (which his legal actions suggest). His lawyer seems to suggest it’s only the nine images in question, but this is a case that has dragged on for two years now with only one euro in damages to show for it with a threat of future damages if the images are not filtered in the future.

I personally see this as a Pyrrhic victory, as it really won’t stop people from finding those images, and now forces Google to implement filters that are about as effective as a water pistol is in putting out a burning barn.
