Publishing Companies Say Google is Liable for Promoting Pirated Textbooks
Briefly

The pirates are scofflaws who run illegal businesses devoted to piracy and frequently operate from abroad where they can often evade judgment enforcement. Google is a preeminent U.S. company that claims to set the 'industry standard' for eliminating 'rogue sites' from its advertising services.
the publishers have been sending Google notices of infringement for years, but Google's response has been 'a circus of failures.' Rather than removing the ads for the infringing works, Google 'has continued to do business with known pirates,' said the complaint, and 'even threatened to stop reviewing all of the Publishers' notices for up to six months simply because the Publishers appropriately re-submitted notices for infringing works that Google previously failed to act upon.'
