WN - Hur paranoid bör man vara för Google?

Citat:

Google search queries -- obtained by court-ordered warrants -- have been used in numerous criminal cases, including the recent case of a Florida man who was convicted of murder based on evidence that included his own Google research, which included searching on terms like "trauma, cases, gunshot, right chest."

Man får passa sig vilka ord man söker på :)

Citat:

American laws governing similar situations differ somewhat from Canadian statutes, but the York case is reminiscent of the recent "Skank blogger" ruling, in which a Manhattan Supreme Court judge ordered Google to turn over the e-mail and IP address of an anonymous blogger who called model Liskula Cohen "the skankiest in NYC."

Att vara anonym bloggare och kalla nån annan för hora går inte för sig heller :)

Citat:

A Canadian court has ordered Google (GOOG) to turn over the identities of anonymous Gmail users who had accused York University faculty members of fraud and dishonesty. Like similar cases in the U.S., the York incident shows just how easy it is for courts to allow authorities to gain access to "our" personal information.

Märkligt att dom lämnar ut IP:nr för ett sådant simpelt "brott": En professor som kritiserade ett universitet.

Google är i mina ögon ett "tveeggat svärd".
