How do people manage to de-index a third party URL live from Google when the original link is live on the Google?

For example, all that they need is just the target URL, check for eligibility and then somehow remove it from Google.

Is it possible using the reporting/removal tools of Google or there is smth else involved?
 
Weaponised DMCA reports from fake legal firms in non-US locations. Google pretty much have to act on them if they are reported correctly, and they can be painful to clean up after.

u cannot generally de index another persons live link simply bcz you wish to have it de indexed. this is bcz googles de indexing processes can only be used in certain eligible situations such as those related to priivacy, legal concerns, hacking or policy breaches.

Imo, google removal tools be the main option for third party url deindexing but removal works when urls have certain criteria.
 
Yeah, you generally can’t just remove someone else’s URL from Google whenever you want.

Google’s removal reporting tools are mainly for specific cases like legal issues, personal information, spam or other policy violations.
 
aik Google’s de-indexing tools are not intended for the random removal of any other live link. If anyone is able to provide such a service, I would really doubt its credibility unless I could find out the working behind it.
 
Yeah, Google has tools for URL removals and reporting, but you can’t just delete any random live third-party URL by submitting it alone. The URL has to match a specific removal requirement, like outdated material, personal data, legal or policy problems, or similar. If it doesn’t actually qualify, Google won’t de-index it, even if you feel it should be taken down.

Yes, there is no valid method of inputting an URL nd instantly de-indexing it. there must be a valid reason why that would happen otherwise, google would just keep indexing it.
 
Google removal tools usually work only for eligible cases, such as content you control or serious policy issues. Third-party URLs generally cannot simply be removed because someone submits the URL.
