[07:37:09] <Obongo>	 No way to export all but the most current revision of a page without text editor?
[08:09:49] <Obongo>	 Hum, I may have found my workaround.
[10:43:53] <sakim>	 Aggressive Spamming by Tech Support Scammers result in manipulated web results that lead to Compromised Personal Identifiable Information
[10:44:07] <sakim>	 i would like to show some examples. 
[10:44:23] <sakim>	 Any one bothered by this behavuour
[10:47:31] <bawolff>	 sakim: while its obviously despicable behaviour, im not sure why you are asking us?
[10:47:51] <sakim>	 because it happens on WikiPedia 
[10:48:02] <sakim>	 And MediaWiki API's are being used
[10:49:07] <bawolff>	 If it is happening on wikipedia you should bring it to the attention of wikipedia admins
[10:49:42] <bawolff>	 there is of course going to be some abuse of an open editing website like wikipedia
[10:50:04] <bawolff>	 but usually wikipedia admins do a good job of dwleting such stuff quickly
[10:50:19] <sakim>	 yes i understand. 
[10:52:30] <sakim>	 https://imgur.com/a/KupDS
[10:52:42] <sakim>	 this customer service information has been on google for more than a month 
[10:53:31] <sakim>	 it belongs to dxsupport.com and innocent people are being scammed. 
[10:53:50] <Obongo>	 There is a "Feedback" button below the right hand side panel
[10:54:04] <Obongo>	 You should probably tell Google, not Wikipedia, about this.
[10:54:06] <sakim>	 does google feedback section results have some connecting wikimedia data or 
[10:54:20] <Obongo>	 They probably don't care to update it extremely often
[10:54:29] <sakim>	 The data comes from MediaWiki
[10:55:48] <sakim>	 this kind of spam is active for hundreds of products and companies.  
[10:55:54] <sakim>	 what would you suggest. 
[10:56:13] <sakim>	 how to dig deep and do something about it 
[10:56:35] <Obongo>	 I'm actually not getting the same number as you when I search for "norton customer service". Is that a current image?
[10:56:37] <Obongo>	 Damn the bubble
[10:56:44] <sakim>	 it keeps changing 
[10:56:50] <sakim>	 if you visit wikipedia 
[10:56:59] <bawolff>	 Data is not really "coming" from mediawiki
[10:56:59] <sakim>	 and search for norton antivirus 
[10:57:14] <sakim>	 you will see people with their IP addresses / usernames 
[10:57:21] <sakim>	 attempting to update numbers. 
[10:57:40] <sakim>	 number keeps changing evernow and then .
[10:58:14] <sakim>	 @bawolff
[10:58:18] <sakim>	 where does this data come from 
[10:58:25] <sakim>	 any idea
[10:58:30] <bawolff>	 Its coming from wikipedia
[10:58:56] <sakim>	 ok\
[10:59:18] <bawolff>	 if the norton antivirus page is repeatedly vandalized you could ask a wikipedia admin to protect it maybe
[10:59:49] <sakim>	 ok
[10:59:50] <bawolff>	 or ask them to try to set up an abuse filter thing to filter out these types of edits
[10:59:57] <sakim>	 sure
[11:00:02] <sakim>	 thank you.. 
[11:00:21] <bawolff>	 you could also ask google to maybe not show info like "customer support"
[11:00:33] <sakim>	 Google doesnt care
[11:00:38] <bawolff>	 but we here cant do much about it
[11:01:06] <sakim>	 thanks for providing information on this 
[11:01:24] <sakim>	 good bye
[18:03:09] <hmh>	 this is new
