Krishan Canzius of University of Pennsylvania

The Rebranding of a Temple University Math Professor

How Temple University Tries to Distance Itself From Their Professor and How Google LLC Tries to Distance Itself From Temple University — And Fail Spectacularly

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA

DAVID ARANOVSKY,
Plaintiff,

v.

TEMPLE UNIVERSITY, GOOGLE LLC, ACADEMIA INC, and MEDIUM CORPORATION,
Defendants.

Case No.: 2:25-cv-07080-MKC
Related Case No.: 2:25-cv-06797-MKC

PLAINTIFF'S NOTICE REGARDING DEFENDANT GOOGLE LLC’S COUNSEL MOTION FOR EXTENSION

Plaintiff files this Notice to ensure the Court is aware of recent developments that bear directly on the pending motion.

  1. On January 6, 2026, after consenting to the 31 day extension, Plaintiff notified Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, counsel for Google LLC, that spoliation of evidence was occurring in real time. Additionally, a screenshot was provided showing Google search results for “krishan canzius” with Plaintiff’s article ranking #3.

  2. Several days after that notice, the search results were altered. The article now ranks #4. An irrelevant “Penn Math” page—containing zero mentions of Krishan Canzius—appears at #2, superseding Canzius' Linkedin page and other pages directly related to Krishan Canzius.

  3. Following the same timeline, Google has altered how Defendant Canzius' LinkedIn profile appears in search results. Where it previously displayed 'Krishan Canzius - PhD Candidate in Mathematics,' it now displays 'Krishan Canzius - University of Pennsylvania,' despite no corresponding change to the underlying LinkedIn profile. This appears to be part of the same coordinated effort to reframe / rebrand his public identity away from Temple University and the felony documented in this case.

  4. Google’s counsel filed a motion for a 31‑day extension on January 14, 2026, citing the need to “analyze and investigate, due to "[] people (even lawyers)" needing a good rest from the holidays.

This sequence suggests the requested extension may indeed be needed—though not as much for holiday celebration recovery and "analysis and investigation", but more for Google LLC to perform additional content manipulation, search‑result sanitization, and public‑perception subversion, pertaining to the original "PR Nightmare" documentation (https://medium.com/p/08224bddb6d0).

Plaintiff is merely documenting this pattern for the record. No action is requested at this time, although common sense suggests action will be taken shortly, and not by Plaintiff.

P.S. A question for Defendant Google LLC, should they wish to clarify the record: What was the ranking of the “Penn Math” page for the query “krishan canzius” prior to January 6, 2026? Google LLC maintains exhaustive historical search‑ranking data; the answer should be readily available.

Respectfully submitted,
/S/ DAVID ARANOVSKY

3. Irrelevant and Inactive URL Appearing in Google Search Results for "Krishan Canzius"

URL: https://www.math.upenn.edu/people/krishan-canzius
Status: This URL currently resolves to a generic directory containing zero mentions of "Krishan Canzius."

Internet Archive Record: According to the Wayback Machine, the page was last successfully archived on April 27, 2025, indicating it has been inactive or removed for approximately nine months.

Archive Link: https://web.archive.org/web/20250401000000*/https://www.math.upenn.edu/people/krishan-canzius

Significance: Google is ranking an inactive, content‑irrelevant page in position #2 for a highly specific personal‑name query—a result inconsistent with organic ranking and indicative of manual intervention.
