Judge to Order Google to Give Up Some Data
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory?id=1724028
SAN JOSE, Calif. Mar 14, 2006 (AP)— A federal judge said Tuesday he intends to require Google Inc. to turn over some information to the Department of Justice in its quest to revive a law making it harder for children to see online pornography. U.S. District Judge James Ware did not immediately say whether the data will include words that users entered into the Internet's leading search engine. The legal showdown over how much of the Web's vast databases should be shared with the government has pitted the Bush administration against the Mountain View-based company, which resisted a subpoena to turn over any information because of user privacy and trade secret concerns. The Justice Department downplayed Google's concerns, arguing it doesn't want any personal information nor any data that would undermine the company's thriving business. _____________________ Gee....I'm shocked. |
Google is not being charged with any crime. This has nothing to do with the patriotic act.
They are being forced to turn over records. How is that fucking possible? |

Dont worry about Google I am sure they got the lawyers that will make sure nothing like this happens!

what if they still refuse, who goes to jail?

It should be noted that instead of millions of searches and results, they are looking at something like 50k items instead... which is apparently enough to satisfy the government's needs.
I would say if you are on the front page for porn or porn movies, I would make sure that my adult meta tags are up to date :) Alex |
