Dutch Site Sues Google Over Alleged Porn Ad Links

Elinor Mills writes on The C|Net Search Blog:

A dating Web site for Dutch farmers--Farm Date--has sued Google for displaying what it says are sponsored links to pornographic sites when you type "Farm Date" into the Google search engine, according to the Agence France-Presse.

The sponsored links are "very damaging for Farm Date's reputation," the article says, quoting Dutch farmer union FNV Bondgenoten, which is defending the Web site.

Farm Date, which looks like your typical dating site, only in Dutch, bills itself as a "respectable meeting website for farmers."
