Am I the only one who was surprised at how low that number was?
- ikujhygtfghyjuk 16y agoThis is the number of request by agencies that bothered to get warrants. It doesn't include three-letter-agencies that have their own access.
- kenjackson 16y agoI actually thought it was pretty high. That's like 25 times per day Google is sending search information to law enforcement. One thing I do hope is that they are requiring a judge to sign off on these like wiretaps. I'd worry about a jealous husband in law enforcement trying to find out what his ex-gf is up to. What I find kind of surprising is I've heard of very few cases that have used this information. They certainly never use it on Law & Order.
- ErrantX 16y agoMost of these are likely civil warrants. And, yes, you would need a judge to sign off on these. Google (more than most companies) are particularly anal (and rightly so) about disclosures such as these.
- Gotttzsche 16y agoi was surprised they save my search history. :naive: is there even any legitimate use for that? any ways to prevent that without making googling less easy?
- brown9-2 16y agoPretty sure you can turn off your search history in your account settings.
