Re: Does this tool... [do Total Information Awareness?]

Hi, ShelLuser,

Does this answer your question ....... http://cryptome.org/isp-spy/google-spy3.pdf ..... or raise more questions?

What has to be realised, as in remembered in metadatamining operations, is that search engines can be groomed to provide analysts a false trail for their reasonable assumptions/subjective conclusions based upon Google/search engine queries which have been carefully selected to give a certain impression, which may or may not be perfectly accurate. And the same caveat applies should browser history be a metadatamining tool available to whoever would be interested in knowing such personal information/intelligence.
