Wow, obviously an oversight. Pretty sure Google does not want search tools to be responsible for the content of the results they surface...

To some extent they already are. Whether it’s the EUs “Right to be Forgotten” or US DMCA takedown notices, Google are responsible for removing listings.

To be clear: I also don’t agree with the podcast takedown.
