Aussie Man, Wrongly Linked to Criminal, Wins Case vs. Google

A man in Melbourne, Australia, won a defamation case against Google over the search engine's image results. The plaintiff, Michael Trkulja, reportedly contacted Google in 2009 requesting that the site remove images linking him to former meth kingpin Tony Mokbel. Google used the innocent dissemination defense, arguing that it hadn't published the materials in question and was simply indexing information found elsewhere. The court wouldn't have it, though, asserting that Google was still liable for the image results.
