Yet Again, Someone Trying to Vanish My Post About a Case on One-Sided Pseudonymity

In February, I wrote about a Fourth Circuit decision in Doe v. Sidar, which discusses one-sided pseudonymity. Today, I see that Google received yet one more request that it remove that post from its indexes, and thus vanish it from search results. That's the fourth attempt so far aimed at that particular post; I've written about the first three here and here. The request's theory is that the post violated the copyright in a tumblr post, https://www.tumblr.com/case49news/745091056157196289/fourth-circuit-on-one-sided-pseudonymity-in-sexual:
