Google Subpoena

I have a strong distaste for government snooping in any type of wolves clothing. If there is so much discontent over this and any other form of internet snooping, do something about it - like do any number of searches for sexually explicit content using any variety of words I am sure most could think of. If enough folks do this, the analysis will give an incorrect result (very high numbers of searches for sexually explicit material) which then would need to be "corrected" downward, given that the government analyzer knows that this is going on. The downward correction is then a guess and the final answer is a guess.

If you do not like the government snooping through your e-mails, again, take some action. If enough folks, (read millions across the globe) send e-mails to their address lists with nothing more than the catch words the government is looking for (you can guess a lot of them, explosives, hijack, terror, etc.) and or put a list of these words at the end of a legitimate message, the system will not be able to handle the input.

It is a little like the kids in High School who object to dog sniffing searches during lockdown (that is constitutional??)soaking a butt in water or alcohol or dissolving a little of whatever drug makes them happy in water or alcohol or acetone and distributing it around the school (locker doors, teachers car door jambs, a little everywhere. What do you think the dogs will do and what will the effect be on any such search.

Think some of this through and take the appropriate and legal action.
