Live in the EU? You probably should start accessing Google through a VPN or proxy.
Google to scrub web search results more widely to soothe EU objections http://www.reuters.com/article/us-google-eu-privacy-idUSKCN0VJ29U To address the concerns of European authorities, the Internet giant will soon start polishing search results across all its websites when someone conducts a search from the country where the removal request originated, a person close to the company said. That means that if a German resident asks Google to de-list a link popping up under searches for his or her name, the link will not be visible on any version of Google's website, including Google.com, when the search engine is accessed from Germany. - - - Live in the EU and want to know what your government masters are trying to keep you from seeing on Google search? You'll have to use a proxy or VPN to access Google. I strongly recommend you do so for other than the most innocuous searches. Don't blame Google for this, blame your bureaucratic and political czars of censorship who want to control every aspect of what you see, hear, and think. You poor slaves. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone. _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list http://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
