U.S. Government Wants Google Search Records
JimBridgerBowl writes "According to the San Jose Mercury News, The Bush administration wants access to Google's huge database of search queries submitted by users to track how often pornography is returned in results. This information would be used for Bush's appeal of the 2004 COPA law, targeted to prevent access to pornography by children. The law was struck down because it would have restricted adults access to legal pornography. Google is promising to fight the release of this information." From the article: "The Supreme Court invited the government to either come up with a less drastic version of the law or go to trial to prove that the statute does not violate the First Amendment and is the only viable way to combat child porn. As a result, government lawyers said in court papers they are developing a defense of the 1998 law based on the argument that it is far more effective than software filters in protecting children from porn."
The solution is obvious! Let's all submit pornographic requests to Google.
I guess bush really wants to know how many people are looking for 'Miserable failure' on google.

He can't even figure out by himself what to search for???
Duh! They will reference past querys you made. If they see "Teletubbies Fan Club", and "Rugrats Spectacular!" They will know your underage...or have no life. :)
It's 'cause you searched for "pornography" instead of "Teenaged Tit Freaks"...jeez, man, that's like a basic internet skill.
ad logicam Claiming a proposition is false because it was presented as the conclusion of a fallacious argument.
Don't worry, the NSA has a full profile on you to cross-reference.

That only works if he can read.

It can be a name that matches yours. Then you have to prove that you are not the matching person. Think Identity Theft. It can be looking like another person. Then you have to prove that you are not that person. Think Misidentification.
Wait a minute, which "bush" were you talking about?
Well, not if the president orders it, dummy. Thank God we here in the U.S. has a leader with the courage to come out and say "I am above the law as long as this war, which will never end, goes on."
I only wish he would take the next logical step and declare that presidential elections in a time of war could make us vunerable, and therefore they must be indefinitely suspended until we defeat terrorism.

That's the sort of naive, pre-September 11 talk that got three thousand American citizens killed. While you sniveling liberals are sitting up in your ivory towers, making all your pointless, academic distinctions, George Bush is plowing straight ahead, protecting our lives and our freedoms from pornographers and terrorists. This is why the reality-based community will never win; too much thinking, not enough doing.
You want the truthiness? You can't handle the truthiness!
Yeah, and next thing you know, the president will put up a porn site at whitehouse.com and then switch it over to a mortgage scam.
Mr. Bush, I know you didn't do too good in school, but go to hxttp://al4a.com. That is the best start for a variety of porn. It is even has it categorized into the misleading url hxttp://al4a.com/movies.html where you can pick from 51 different categories in either pictures (if you net connection is already too clogged from CARNIVORE) or movies. You have the complete variety from teeny girls, gay sex. bi sex, fat girl sex (Clinton!!!), BSDM, tranny porn, midget porn, redheads, brunets, big titties, little titties, big cocks, the who 9 yards (the cocks are not that big though).
What is the big deal with porn? Its great. Watching professionals have sex is many times cheaper, better and safer than picking up the drunk girl left at the bar right after last call.
Porn stars are often very intelligent, humble, and adjusted people. Listen to them talk in an interview.
Actually, I would rather have Ron Jeremy in the Whitehouse over you.
What else do you want to know?
(Since when did slashdot start autolinking http://whatever.com/thingies?).
Mistakenly converting to an integer? ;)
Have women changed then? Granted, it's been a while since I saw one close up, but I was kinda hoping they'd be sufficiently similar next time so I'd know which bits to do what to, and stuff!

We'll just add the search fee to your taxes this year.

Why do I get links to a high school orinthology club?
Do not look into laser with remaining eye.
This is a common problem when dealing with people. They piously clamor for what they're supposed to want. Just imagine the improvement in governmental service if our legislative technimicians could see what people really want.

Is this the of which you speak?
I don't read your sig, why do you read mine?
No one protected me from it. The first computer that I had sole access to was when I became the system administrator of the whole house. Its not that they didn't care, its that they didn't know. My parents are usually good at their job so maybe they knew I could handle it (very bad pun there, unintended).
Anyway. Nowadays I'm the one protecting my parents from such things, so that they can't browse or read my collection.
I don't get it.
