Feds Want To See Google Searches.

Apparently, they want to see how many times I looked up "barely legal plushie hentai" this week (Seventeen times, if you have to ask. Hint: always use quotes in your Google searches).

From the A.P.:

The government wants a list all requests entered into Google's search engine during an unspecified single week — a breakdown that could conceivably span tens of millions of queries. In addition, it seeks 1 million randomly selected Web addresses from various Google databases.

In court papers that the San Jose Mercury News reported on after seeing them Wednesday, the Bush administration depicts the information as vital in its effort to restore online child protection laws that have been struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Ahhh, the children. Always about the children. I'd like to know why no one ever wants to protect my *Dad* from viewing online pornography-- I assure you, this prospect is far more frightening to me than Junior surfing for Jenna Jameson photos.
"Search engines now play such an important part in our daily lives that many people probably contact Google more often than they do their own mother," said Thomas Burke, a San Francisco attorney who has handled several prominent cases involving privacy issues.
Well, let's be honest: my mother couldn't tell me where I could find the Colin Farrell sex tape, let alone the Tom Sizemore sex tape. Now, if there had ever been an Engelbert Humperdinck sex tape, dear departed Mom would have been all over that like Michael Moore on Old Country Buffett.

Anyway, this doesn't really rub me all that badly. I mean, it's not like Uncle Sam will discover my personal searching habits from this information. Google could, of course, be at risk for losing some of its trade secrets, but even that argument is rather specious. Personally, if one wants to complain about the lack of privacy in America, I'd look at the United States government long after I looked at other, worse, candidates: credit bureaus, insurance companies, and the Scientologists.

Okay, I made that last one up. Just wanted to see if everyone was still awake here.

What, do you hate family values or something?

I thought it had more to do with child porn and online predators of children. No privacy interest in that stuff.

If only Jenna Jameson pics were all we had to worry about kids seeing. I wouldn't even mind THAT. Geeze!

With spyware and hackers etc. abounding, it's gotta be getting tougher all the time to prove from computer records who actually did the surfing.

Has the "it was a virus, your honor, not I, that looked down the girl's blouse" defence been tried yet?

Actually, the government here is looking at anonymous data only--no one is identified.

I'm not sure exactly what they are after, but I suspect Google is hiding something. They've probably been steering people toward "Farm Sluts Dot Com" or some such site.

Huh?......Wha?.....(wipes drool off corner of mouth.....)

Posted by: CraigC on January 20, 2006 12:50 AM

I got the impression that this was directed more at USERS of kiddie porn and not at kids themselves.

Since hearing about this, I've started searching Google with long strings of obscenities from "The Aristocrats" jokes. I wanna give the Gummint some good search strings to look through.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.

Podcast: CBD and Sefton talk Orban losing, but is it the end of Hungary? The Irish start a brawl, but is it enough, Pope Leo wades into politics, Trump calls Iran's bluff and blockades Hormuz, Artemis II! Swallwell is scum, and more!
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
@KFILE 21m

Politico is reporting that multiple people have abruptly resigned from Eric Swalwell's gubernatorial campaign: "Members of senior leadership have departed the campaign, including Courtni Pugh, a strategic adviser who served as Swalwell's top liaison to organized labor groups."

So the campaign is collapsing due to the truth of the sexual harassment allegations.
That hissing sound you hear is the air going out of the Swalwell campaign. UPDATE: No it wasn't, it was just Swalwell one-cheek-sneaking out a fart on camera
Eric Swalwell more like Eric Farewell amirite
thanks to weft-cut loop.
This is the dumbest AI bullslop I've seen in a while: the CIA can use "quantum magnetometry" to track an individual man's heartbeat from twelve miles away
I wouldn't click on it, it's not interesting, it's just stupid clickslop. I just want to share my annoyance with you.
Oil prices plunge on bizarre realization that Eric Swalwell may actually be straight. A rapey molester, allegedly, but a straight one.
Classic Rock Mystery Click
This is super-obscure and I only barely remember it. Given that, I'll give you the hint that it's by the Red Rocker.
And I guess you think you've got it made
Oh, but then, you never were afraid
Of anything that you've left behind
Oh, but it's alright with me now
'Cause I'll get back up somehow
And with a little luck, yes, I'm bound to win

Now twenty people will tell me it's not obscure, it was huge in their hometown and played at their prom. That's how it usually goes. When I linked Donnie Iris's "Love is Like a Rock," everyone said they knew that one and that his other song (which I didn't know at all) Ah Leah! was huge in their area.
You know we "joke" about the GOPe just "conserving" leftist things?
