"Police Search of AOL Files Divides the On-Line World."
Police descended on the company's headquarters Monday to
perform the first such search ever of America Online
records. Police are enthusiastic about the potentially
incriminating information stored in computers.
"It's a bit chilling, especially if you consider the
idea of police pulling up an instant profile on you with
the punch of a couple buttons," Woolie baa-ed to Babe.
1-26-96. WSJ:
"Internet Racial Hatred Case Investigated."
The Mannheim prosecutor's office is investigating
CompuServe Inc. and Deutsche Telekom AG's T-Online
service for inciting racial hatred, a crime in Germany,
because they provide access to the Internet, where a
Canadian neo-Nazi has set up a home page. Although Mr.
Zuendel lives in Toronto, "because it's available
over the Internet, it also can be called up in Germany,"
the official said. "Then the scene of the crime is all
of Germany."
