This won't hold back infringement. At all. The underlying rationale for this is that the RIAA and MPAA think that people searching for content online are too stupid to realize the difference between a paid link and a free link. They think that if someone does a search on the name of a movie along with "free online," that if they're shown an authorized fee-based offer, they're willing to pay for it. There's little evidence to support that. The people doing such searches know exactly what they're looking for. The real problem is not that Google is showing it to them, it's that the traditional entertainment industry players aren't providing users what they want.

this one is the most relevent reason btw
people will just append the name of the pirate site to the search query, since Google is not delisting the sites
and extra keyword is unique enough that showing the "authorized" competitors would actually represent trademark jacking Google is going to still show that content to the people who want it.
