The Internet is in a continuous state of assembly and disassembly. Removing outdated content is very important because it is material that is no longer interesting, outdated and can cause you a problem. This content may be used by companies that claim images that are under copyright. They are now, but not a few years ago, where those images were for public use and were shared on many pages.
In this article I will comment on how to remove content from the main Internet search engines starting with the most used, Google.
