Google's data minefield
Mark Rasch, 2006-01-30

The U.S. government's broad subpoena to search engines effectively seeks to mine the data of the Internet. While Google has resisted the subpoena, there may be little they can do to protect our privacy from many prying eyes.

Google's Ethical Obligation (1 replies)
Yes. Google should act as a facilitator of government censorship. Google should abide by the laws of the land.

In addition, I should personally act as a facilitator of government censorship; i.e. I should follow the laws. I personally cannot distribute porn to minors.

Search engines need to follow local laws.

Google should work with the government. The subpoena is necessary because Google said no. "Is this the government's objective? To deputize ISP's...", the stated objective is what the government states! Let's not bring innuendo into the government's stated purpose. Let's work together with our branches of government.
