Only in
America...This
story in from the Congressional Quarterly. Not only
does this website,
Patriot Search
believe that what you're searching for on the Internet
should be known by the government they warn up front that if
you use their search engine you will be reported to the
government.
States the spokesman for Patriot Search: “We believe
privacy policies are only of value for those who have
something to hide,” the newly launched Web-crawler,
Patriot
Search proclaims. “Whether you are a normal
searcher, someone trying to download illegal material, a
terrorist looking to build a bomb, or just hunting porn,
we at Patriot Search welcome you! Our mission is to
provide the best possible search engine to you while at
the same time, making sure the government is informed
should you search for something obscure, illegal or
unpatriotic. Instead of letting the government waste tax
money by going through complicated procedures to get user
and search data from
Yahoo, MSN,
Ask Jeeves or
Google, users of
Patriot Search make sure their queries end up right where
they belong — in the databases of the government and its
various agencies.” Government voyeurs might be intrigued
by your clicking on a funny FAQ for
Google
Robots.
