Ex-F1 Boss Max Mosley Vows To Push Battle Against Google Even Further

Max Mosley, the former F1 chief, is not settling for two court rulings in his favor! He wants to take further action against Google by taking the web giant to courts in California and Britain.

Max Mosley, ex-Formula F1 chief, is not ready to rest his case against Google for displaying images linking him to a Nazi-themed orgy. Google on its part has stood by its right to appeal the courts' rulings. A French court in November and a German court last week ordered the web giant to block orgy photos of the former F1 chief from its internet search results. Mosley has vowed further action against Google by dragging the web giant to court in California and Britain, according to German news weekly Der Spiegel, Sunday.

Mosley also noted that Google was "technically... brilliant, sensational," but at the same time he said the tech giant was "arrogant" and "doing whatever it wants", which shows Google's immature management. He also revealed that his next step in Germany and France will be to fight Google over the "auto-complete" function that automatically suggests "Max Mosley with prostitutes" when his name is entered, he told the German magazine, reports MSN News.

Mosley's initial legal run-in was with News of the World newspaper that first alleged at Mosley's participation in a sex session with five prostitutes at a Nazi-themed party in 2008. He was awarded h $96,534 in damages for breach-of-privacy by a court in the U.K and later in 2011, another $48,000 in damages for circulation of the story via papers and the web. Lack of evidence showing Mosley's orgy was Nazi-themed led to the victory.

Though Google is not a direct participant in Mosley's scandal, the web giant is being held responsible for its role as a distributor of images.
