Ask HN: How does Google know police shooting target's name?
4 by brailsafe | 4 comments on Hacker News.
A close friend of mine was recently the target of a fatal police shooting (justified), but his name was never released to the press. However, when I search for his name, the news articles talking about his death are at the top. This seems like a real problem. EDIT: and exact string match doesn't bring up the AMP pages that report on it. There are no strings in the article pages themselves that mention the name.
