Google Sued for Allegedly Profiting From Child Porn

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the this-is-what-happens-when-you're-the-biggest-target dept.

skinfaxi writes "Filed in New York, Jeffrey Toback claims Google has made billions by allowing child porn and 'other obscene content' providers to use sponsored links." From the article: "The suit, which claims Google acted negligently and intentionally inflicted emotional distress on the public, requests monetary damages to be determined at trial. It also accuses Google of violating federal statutes relating to child pornography and calls for the court to order that Google cease "advertising, promoting, or distributing" child pornography through its site or otherwise providing any links to such content."

    First they do the chinese government's job for them and now they're profiting from child porn, so much for "don't be evil", I hope they die.

    but "don't do a little good to make the evil of others a little harder."

    couldn't that be considered "doing evil" by ommission, though?

    so let's get this straight, google will comply to the demands of an immoral nation, yet won't take action to prevent themselves from profiting off of child porn?

    look, i'm as sick as the next guy from greedy liers and thieves using children to try and bolster their sinister, selfish agendas... but the lies and the distortions of those folks don't make right and wrong go away altogether.

    *if* google is actually making money off the child porn trade then they are absolutely an immoral and disgusting as a company.

    oh, i see, the geniuses over at google are now too dumb to be able to know if they are making money off the abuse of children?

    didn't clinton all of a sudden become stupid once he was caught in the crosshairs of justice?

    i hope google isn't guilty.
