Google released an update to their transparency report and with that, listed the top ten sites most impacted by URL removals based on requests for content to be removed from Google. Shockingly, Google+ is in the top ten, I mean, who goes there right? Well, I go there a lot but most people do not.

As of today, the total URLs that Google has evaluated for removal are 1,237,861 URLs and the total requests Google has received are 349,351 requests. Of total URLs requested for removal from search results, these top ten sites account for 9%.
