   CIA can google

   Let's drop the "I" in CIA and that would explain a lot of their thinking. One can relate to "Militairy Intelligence" in the same fashion. Greetz

   Google is not bound to confidentiality?

   Wouldn't it be interesting if google decided to be vindictive and release their seach history?

   Re: CIA can google

   You comment would be amusing except for the fact that you can't even spell military, and the word lets does NOT need an apostrophe. The word you made into a contraction is "let is", now how intelligent is that? If I were a betting man, and I am. I would put every cent I have that anyone who works at the CIA, and yes I even mean the janitors, is more intelligent than you.

   If Google released what the U.S. gov't was searching about it COULD be considered a violation of national security and quite a few employees of Google would end up in jail.

   Your comment is friggin' hilarious considering your own seeming inadequate grasp of English grammar.
   
   And I like the word "militairy" - it rhymes with "fairy". Which would be a pretty good description of most men in the military. Haha. Bite me grammar man.

   Woah

   I could've sworn that it was Let us. And in fact it is. Because Let is is just silly. That's like saying "Don't" is wrong because you just abbreviated "Don" and "At".

   Yeah

   I was hoping Grammar man would catch on about the slip up on "let's", obviously I put too much trust in the everyman's grammar ability.
   
   For the record, the above apostrophy was used to indicated possesion - not an abreviation of "everyman is". THat would be stupid.

    Re: Re: CIA can google

    Look at the grammar police - up so early in the morning. Someone have a bad case of cranky-pants?
    
    I believe "let's" is a contraction for "Let us" NOT "Let is" ...
    
    Class dismissed.

    The Real Story

    Wait a minute, I thought that one of the reasons for the creation of Homeland Security was to facilitate the exchange of information between various agencies. So, five years after 9/11 - which was partly blamed on the lack of data sharing between various agencies - we still have one agency initially refusing to share some data with another agency.

    LOL! Man, I knew some closet homophobe would get upset about that fairy comment! And an ass kicking threat no less!
    
    Mister Marine, if you and I meet, chances are you'd just embarass yourself and prematurely blow your load in your pants.

    In General

    Does anyone remember what you were communicating about? Seems the CIA are not the only ones who don't know how to behave, shame on you all.
    The stupidity of human behaviour never fails to amaze me.

    No. 15

    You could not have said it any better.
    
    Our government is so stupid and so it's my way or the highway that they still have NATIONAL DEFENSE departments not talking to each other. WHAT the FFFFF. What is the major reason for the existence of government, to PROTECT not to job protect. This is ridiculous and better yet this occurs and all you idiots can do on this page is call or military personal fags and correct someones grammar.
    
    You all need a reality check or 9/11/07 is right around the corner.
    
    This is absouletly unacceptable.

    See, the black helicopters are right. They're trying to derail the conversation. They don't want you to know.

    Re: Re: Google is not bound to confidentiality?

    ...but how hard would it be for thier miami isp to sniff the traffic going in and out of the firewall IP address. This has always worried me about searches. I think an interesting product might be some sort of distributed anonymyzer network or, for a fee paid to google, direct vpn connections to them so no one could easedrop along the way.
