The Hill reports Google plans to allow kids age 18 and under to request removal of their images from the company's search engine. The child, or their guardian, will be asked to submit a request form at which point Google will consider the request under its requirements for removal. "We believe this change will help give young people more control over their digital footprint and where their images can be found on Search," Google wrote in its announcement.
