Adult magazine Perfect 10 filed a copyright lawsuit against Amazon’s A9.com search engine, but a search marketing expert is questioning the case’s validity.

In the complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles late last month, Perfect 10, Beverly Hills, CA, has asked for a preliminary injunction to stop A9 from displaying Perfect 10’s copyrighted images, including photos of nude women.

However, an SEO expert noted that Perfect 10 can simply opt out of having its images included in the search results.
