Re: Google's "automated systems" analyses your search content, including Gmail


Disclaimer Note: This blog exists at the pleasure of Google's blogger.com which also includes a required Gmail account.

"Google reveals a child abuse case" TheWestSideStory.net 


"In a convict's Gmail account, it was spotted by google in its automated search that he had images of a young girl. The convict has stored this in his gmail account. Google reported this to the US non-profit National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Then after a police investigation the guy was arrested. The email was [alleged as] being sent from the account of John Henry Skillern."

While the article further noted Skillern's background as a "convict" another source report listed Skillern as a "registered sex offender".

In other words, he was already under oversight of law enforcement and subject to a legal review of his person, property or home (including his Internet mail) with or without a warrant - because of his prior felon conviction & registration requirement. Sort of like being on continued parole as I understand it. 

Thus, negating Google's preemptive action.  And asking the question as to why law officials stated this, "I can't see that information; I can't see that photo, but Google can." 

After all, even at a job application, your credit rating is often checked, as well as, your Facebook and Twitter page postings etc. Adding people have been arrested due to their Facebook "friend" posted content.

In this same news report,

"Google's chief legal officer said previously that Google helps fund the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF). This is a foundation which tasks to proactively identifying child abuse images that Google can then remove from our search engine."

All well and good if you're on the up and up, right?

Maybe not so much these days as your search engine choice may now,  likewise, become a legal factor.

Think Google made it to the top of the search engine pile just by locating cat videos? Then think again.




Video One may be one of the largest adult video ad-clip sites on the Internet. The above photo snip shows that Video One wants your "Facebook friends" to know about this page

... and ... recommends you should use the "Google" as your preferred search engine.

Which puts it at the top of a Google search page (traffic) rather than buried in the back page clutter of such other large search engines as Yahoo, Bing, and/or others. 

Noting that the above clip shows the "Video One" as a "dot com" location address, but recently changed, due to, server traffic overload, etc., by adding an additional search or page cover location. Or a new address now listed as a "dot.xxx" or as (video-one.xxx). 

 With that said,  Google's help with their "Internet Watch Foundation (IWF)" project, I surmise would rarely leave this one single page, Gmail would never be a factor, much less be delivered. 

In fairness, here's what Video One posts at the bottom of their "adult" page, found by using the Google search option, of course. 

(However, noting that the Video One page that Google so quickly takes you to, may be the single, if not, largest site of Malware and otherwise viruses.) 

Another issue that the Google corporation is claiming as a primary work related project.
