How the “Mail & Guardian” got taken down
I'm kind of amazed at how effective this digital reputation management technique is:* publish an exact copy of the offending content on a web site and include something that looks like a datetime which is earlier than the publication date of the offending content
* tell the web site's ISP and other service providers that they're violating copyright, pointing to your fake content and using the providers' copyright-violation processes, which you know all about because your reputation firm does this stuff all the timeThis also works for search engine deindexing, right?It's just remarkable to me that (a) we all know this works super well and (b) it keeps working even though everyone knows about it.
