Police tipped off by employer in "pressure cooker/backpack" story -- NOT BY GOOGLE
http://j.mp/19AwJ5N (TechCrunch)
Suffolk County Criminal Intelligence Detectives received a tip from a
Bay Shore based computer company regarding suspicious computer
searches conducted by a recently released employee. The former
employee's computer searches took place on this employee's workplace
computer. On that computer, the employee searched the terms "pressure
cooker bombs" and "backpacks."

So there you go. Nothing whatever to do with Google, everything to do with
overreacting ex-employers and paramilitary police departments.
Are we done with this now?
