The umbrella organization of Argentina’s Jewish community, DAIA, has won an injunction against Google, preventing the world’s most popular search engine from “suggesting” anti-Semitic and racist websites to its users.

The presiding judge at the Buenos Aires court, Dr. Molina Portela, also ruled that Google cannot run adverts on these websites, which are illegal under Argentine law.

The DAIA request for the injunction listed some 76 websites which it described as “highly discriminatory,” including some which deny the Holocaust took place. The common denominator of the sites, said the DAIA on its website, “is the incitement to hatred and the call to violence.”
