US demands internet records

U.S. Obtains Internet Users' Search Records

This is a direct follow-up from my early morning musings. As the above link reports, Google may be resisting calls to hand over information to the Bush imperial database - but Microsoft, AOL and Yahoo seem to have no such qualms. Nor is there any comfort for those of us living outside Amerika - these are global search engines that operate beyond national boundaries.

Just how long Google can battle alone against this conspiracy only time will tell. For now, you can be sure I'll be restricting my searches to a route free of data highwaymen.

Later.
