U2 Manager Paul McGuinness: Google Should 'Take Down' Sites And 'Keep Them Down'

It's all so "simple." Just "take sites down" and "keep them down." Like many people who frequently confuse "Google" for "the Internet", McGuinness overstates the simplicity of his request while granting powers to Google that it simply doesn't possess.

Google's main product is a search engine. It crawls and indexes sites. It is not in the "internet police" business. That's not what it's product is intended to do and that's not what a majority of those using the search engine want Google to be doing.
