"Googlehackers" find secret information. A shock-horror report claims that Google is somehow complicit in the fact that search-savvy users have unconvered a military document listing suspected Taliban and al Qaeda members, people's medical records, bank account numbers, students' grades, and the docking locations of 804 U.S. Navy ships, submarines and destroyers. It's more the fault of web masters incorrectly posting sensitive data, like this government subcontractor who posted the names, birthdays and daily whereabouts of hundreds of New York children. In reality, the amount of sensitive information carelessly left around is amazing. Try the random personal picture finder, or a search on resume.doc, expenses.xls, or similarly titled documents on Kazaa. No use in blaming Google if you post inappropriate pictures of yourself on the web, or leave your bank account details in Kazaa's shared directory.
