Hi,

I'm a medical professional.

Someone I've never met (a mentally ill patient I know of by way of a
third party) has posted a message on a public (non-google) forum using
my full name in the subject line, with the usual obscenities.

Unfortunately, when searching for my name, it posts high on Google's
search results.

I'd like to find out how to delete this. I've contacted the domain
owners many times, but they aren't responding, despite the fact it's
an obvious violation of TOS.

I'd be deeply grateful for any help.

Thanks,

Annika

The best option here is to hire a lawyer, or involve the legal team at your employer, and have them contact the sites involved. Often an official looking letter from a lawyer is all it takes to motivate a company to enforce their TOS. If a simple letter doesn't work the lawyer can also advice you on the next step to take from a legal point of view.

If you don't have a lawyer you regularly work with let me know and I'd be happy to point you to a knowledgable one in the area.

As a final note once the content has been taken down you'll need to contact each search provider to have the content removed from their search lists and cache. I recommend at least contacting Google, Yahoo and Bing. Again a letter from a lawyer can often speed up this process.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Matt

Overload it with good information. Sign up for a ton of social networks and get good stuff associated with your name. You could do this in just a few hrs and no cost. Would you post a link to the post so we could see its exact context as well?

I did a quick search on "annika arnborg" and did not really find anything... am I missing something?

Great advice and a good low cost option.

Thanks JC for the advice; I'd still prefer to remove it altogether.
I've considered a lawyer, but my fear is what happens if they refuse?
If they call a bluff? The key here is I don't want to make things
worse. I just want it down.

Rick: Don't take this personally, but how stupid would I be to post
with my real name?

Well, considering all the spam that goes this group....you could have used an ID like that WASN'T a name. You did ASK for help after all...don't take this personally, but it sounds like BS to me...

Why is it stupid to use your real name? This isn't an uncommon situation and its not illegal. My name is Justice Conder and I'm a 29yr old computer science college student and i live in Kent OH. Why the weird secrecy?

Rick was just trying to help no need to get hostile. It's pretty clear by now that you don't want help, and you don't want to fix things using the right channels. You asked for advice and you got it. If you don't like it then go seek free advice somewhere else.

Given the fact that your acting as childish as you are this does not sound like a plead for help but, the acts of some random juvenile.
