Secret warrants against Google search terms are on the rise
Open-ended warrants for anyone who searches for a specific term. ...

In a sea of warrants asking data from Big Tech and their social media, the keyword searches, along with the geofence ones are considered to be among the most worrying when it comes to their potential to implicate perfectly innocent people, thanks to the “dragnet” approach.

Namely, these two types of warrants are not asking for data from suspects investigators have already identified; instead, they are hoping to come across them, and don’t care if everyone accidentally finding themselves within a physical perimeter or using a keyword in their search that has nothing to do with a crime might have their data given to government agencies.

In the Wisconsin case, Google cooperated and provided the requested information last year, but the document doesn’t show how many people got their Google accounts and IPs turned over.

Examples like this demonstrate that Google continues to work with the authorities even on warrants that are based on dubious legal grounds.


Yet another good reason to never use Google for anything, ever.

Then don't have a WeChat account, duh!


You don't understand how technology works.

Have a credit card?

I don't. "How can you live without it???" you may ask - very easily.

Do have a business credit card though, that I'm forced to use.

You've been walked into this bullshit your ENTIRE life. Your money is just paper, it used to be convertible to gold, 100 years ago.

You didn't watch the video.

Yes I did.

Just like it's an option to use a credit card, it's an option to use Apple Pay or WeChat. There's a scramble to become the monopoly is all.

People ARE cattle. You can warn about this all you want, you're just written off as a nutcase. I knew, for example, that Facebook was an intelligence gathering system 10 years ago, who listened to me? Twitter has ALWAYS been propaganda, I knew that from the start, who listened to me? These companies are in my area, and my area of expertise, we engineers talk. Nobody believes us, and in fact we get insulted when we blow the whistle, it's hard not to feel contempt for the general public after a point.
