Google May Have to Turn Over Some Web Data to U.S. (http://quote.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000006&sid=aVczHPaxkCHw&refer=home)

What do you think of this?

Parents should be the ones keeping their children from viewing pornography, not the state!!

Another case of unnecessary censorship to prevent something that the state has no right to regulate in the first place.

Anyway, what is so bad about porn :D ;)

Discuss.

This is not true censorship, the feds want statistical data regarding what words/phrases are being searched for and how many of those searches contain "objectionable" material. I'm sure they'd like to know who is also putting in the searches, but Google wouldn't turn that over without a big court fight.

As for what's wrong with porn; people born to into power have decided you shouldn't see it. Are you saying they don't know what's best for you? What's wrong with you?!

lol, I had a dream that they started regulating NS discussions and we all started posting "Fuck you Big Brother" or something like that. Yes, I sometimes dream I'm on NSG (once). Yes, that was random, but your comment reminded me of that.

I don't care...if Google's going to censor Chinese search results per the demands of the Chinese government, then they should have to comply with the US government's request if it's legal. Honestly, this attempt to portray themselves as defenders of the right to privacy is bullshit...Google should just give up the farce since they aren't convincing anybody who knows what they are really doing.

I don't think the US should try to catch up to China in matters of censorship and information access.

At least the Chinese people now have a Google, instead of the Chinese government just blocking the entire thing.

Neither do I, but I hardly see Google as giving a shit about our rights.

Yes, and it's only a matter of time before they turn over some dissident to years of hard labor and enslavement to the state just like Yahoo did to a blogger.

And the only reason to do it is to boost their EPS...I have no problem with companies doing business in places that require them to comply with censorship laws, but those companies shouldn't try to hide behind a bullshit veneer of being the "good guys" that fight for our privacy.

I've done it in quotations and without quotations, about 3 dozen times in the last couple of minutes.

You've got a movement.

The link just brings me to a blank page. But judging on what is being said, how will the feds know if the searches are being conducted by minors?
