Google: More People Will Die From Swine Flu If We Cannot Retain Search Data
Co-founder makes ridiculous assertions to justify sidestepping privacy concerns

Wednesday, May 20, 2009
Google has cited a possible influenza pandemic as a reason why it should be allowed to permanently retain users’ search data without restrictions.
There is an ongoing debate within the European Commission as to how long web companies should be able to keep such data, with privacy advocates suggesting it be wiped after six months.
However, Google co-founder Larry Page has suggested that the company should not be hindered in retaining search data, rather ludicrously suggesting that the more restrictions there are on data retention, the “more likely we all are to die”.
“Our up-to-date influenza estimates may enable public health officials and health professionals to better respond to seasonal epidemics and pandemics,” Page is reported to have claimed at Google annual Zeitgeist conference in London.
He said Google’s ability to plot and predict potential pandemics would not be possible if the firm had to delete search data after six months, the BBC reports.
(Article continues below)
Sci-Tech website The Register points out that Google has previously boasted that its flu estimates are available each day because Google search queries can be automatically counted very quickly.
Which raises a question: if the point of using web searches to track disease is that the data is instantly available, how does data that is more than six months old help, let alone make us all less likely to die? The Register asks.
Only hardened cynics (ahem) would suggest that the push for long term retention of search data is intrinsically tied to Google’s mass profit making target advertising campaigns.

I am relieved that google wants to do stuff like this…you know, keep search-term data forever for such words as liberty, tea party, gun, tax resistance and revolution. I feel safe now.

I dont use google as a search engine. I stay away from all of their online “services” The whole swine flu crap is about as bull as you can get. The media has whole globe is worked up over THE COMMON COLD, in the fallout of the biggest banker heist in history next to the Federal Reserve Scam Act

You can always use ixquick or clusty and NOT google or yahoo, unless you have to.
That’s what I do. I’m tired of being spied on.

Actually, I spent my day off, takingmy laptop to Waffle House (I was exhausted) and showed strangers, fellow American citizens, human beings some vids & educated them a little of what is going on. They thanked me. I then called my Senator & Congressman. I think if we write up Peitions listing the major issues like the reformed Patriot Act, vaccine laws (mandating if you refuse after Pandemic ordered, felony, prison, etc.) THOSE kinds of things & oh, the Nat’l Secuirty and HOmeland SEcurity Presidential Directive that President ordered WITHOUT American publics approval, Congress, etc. al in the name of PROTECTING US..HOW about getting off our ASS if you want to protect us…we need protection from THEM!!!!

NSA already keeps this information. Google just wants to sell this information to funeral homes. Amazing what happens to companies that get to BIG, they think they can threaten the public to get their way.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:10 am
This has got to be the most profoundly ridiculous excuse I have EVER heard for taking the Public’s privacy away.
This argument holds no weight and holds no water, yet the hopelessly ignorant masses will ACCEPT it and think that if it’s for their own good, then it MUST be good!
UNBELIEVABLE.
Fewer things have I ever read have so taken me aback that I am truly speechless.

We all use google even if we don’t do any search.

This is really funny. In German we have a short compound adjective for such behaviour: “dummdreist”. It links the the meanings of “dumb” and “insolent”.
May 20th, 2009 at 11:10 am
How does this even make sense?
If I had the flu I wouldn’t be searching Google for “influenza.”

they wana create massive fear with the same virus they want to scare you so they can go to phase 6 total control of people the first thing is to make you panic of a plausible mutation and google will spread the word then FOX CNN etc… or meaby its a way to get you guys to stop thinking of the true change … its all about stages think … first the bank then the guns then control of the roads then control of the people …..

May 20th, 2009 at 11:47 am
Remember a couple of months ago…google wanting to track people’s searches of “flu”?
May 20th, 2009 at 11:48 am
the thing they are doing is to get people to fear the virus again so i think that they whant you to know about the plausible mutation of the virus … and the best way to spread news is on google then FOX CNN will catch up and the rest you know …. it might be a way to make marshallaw …. but another thing is that it might be a way of distraction to get you think about the flu insted of the gun control the one world bank control of roads the kid boy scouts training …. if you look at what i written it looks like a master plan from a cartoon evil dictator looking to rule the world before he is dead but it is real they whant to control you with there own manual of operations book in HOW TO RULE THE WORLD 10 easy steps to follow …… were are the true patriots of liberty when you need them to stop the evil plot of Mumm-RA

Watch it there. Jason Burmass reads these blogs.
We now know he’s a Jew Boy apologist as of his May 11 show, fourth hour and 45 minutes into the show he stood in for Alex Jones. He talk a talk back call and went ballistic when the word ‘JEW’ was mentioned.
When will Alex get the balls and good sense to fire this Jew Shill. He’s game is up. Burmass has exposed himself. We know his game. The whole Partiot movement now knows who he is.
I simply can’t listen to him anymore. He has no credibility.

You must be crazy evil larry. Jews, ordinary jews have nothing to do with the big plot. In fact they are being used as tools as well. Some of them get some easy entrance requirements into Hollywood, etc…, but that is because the role is designed for them as such. Please take your racism away from here. Jason is a great and very decent man.

Google co-founder Larry Page has suggested “….likely we all are to die”.
Does he not mean; “….YOU are going to die:.
They know it. They’re Google.

Forget Google products. Use http://www.clusty.com for searches. They don’t spy on you.

3:1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any animal of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden?’”
3:2 The woman said to the serpent, “Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat, 3:3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’”
3:4 The serpent said to the woman, “You won’t surely die, 3:5 for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
3:6 When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate. 3:7 The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. 3:8 They heard the voice of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.
3:9 Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”
3:10 The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.”
3:11 God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
3:12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”
3:13 Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
3:14 Yahweh God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this,
you are cursed above all livestock,
and above every animal of the field.
On your belly you shall go,
and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
3:15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring.
He will bruise your head,
and you will bruise his heel.”
3:16 To the woman he said,
“I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth.
In pain you will bear children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.”
3:17 To Adam he said,
“Because you have listened to your wife’s voice,
and have eaten of the tree,
of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’
cursed is the ground for your sake.
In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
3:18 It will yield thorns and thistles to you;
and you will eat the herb of the field.
3:19 By the sweat of your face will you eat bread until you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken.
For you are dust,
and to dust you shall return.”
YOU ATE THE FRUIT OF THE GOOGLE TREE….DID YAH NOT NOTICE THEIR LOGOS PEOPLE?

Swine Flue what a fast !!! We had horse flu here in Australia previous years before the deliberate Gov. shut down of the horse industry….This is another experimental tactic of complete control…..to shut down businesses….take jobs….hospitals under attack! More job under threat…… our schools right now is conducting colours in categorizing classes, and of all places to have their event ‘ the Masonic hall’! And of all colors the yellow! green! Suttle!!!!! Not quite your red yellow and blue yet! There is a fast growing pattern of joblessness pushing everyone on the doll….sick people under pressure to work, our immune systems shot! they haven’t a clue what’s going on …..but then you can always get your funeral financed!… Or quit smoking before some one attacks you for making them sick!…pass the buck tactic’s, the blame game!…and if Google hasn’t got all our info Centerlink does and our License ext. ext. maybe I’ll go bush and live off the land! but then they’ve got that stuffed too… with such bad language I wouldn’t wonder man is so vent on to their own self destruction! Heaven or hell…..like your verse, wisdom! it is the beginning of all understanding. good old proverbs…… as in the days of Noe so shall it be…..but far greater!!! Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. luke 21:36 there is a little glimmer of hope to those in dispare…thanks google for the opportunity to share our stuff and that man is vent on distroying himself and others!!!

I see no harm in it if Google does not retain identifying information. If they just keep search strings, tie it in with the date and location, I honestly don’t see any harm. It’s not really a privacy violation unless the search can be linked back to you.
