Journal GigsVT's Journal: AOL Search Leak, belated 1
Looks like I'm behind the curve on this AOL Search leak story that broke last week. Been really busy.
This blog entry is the precise reason that "if you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to be afraid of" is bullshit.
They take some searches this guy did, and ascribe some real world intent to them. To me, it's obvious he's just one of us that is facinated with stuff like rotten.com, goregasm, crime stories and accident stories. Doesn't mean we want to kill anyone.
I don't think the transparent society would work. Too many people making too many assumptions about intent. Sometimes you need a little privacy, even if you aren't doing anything wrong.
And bloggers that need some serious lessons in responsible journalism aren't helping matters.
Makes me glad . . . (Score:1)
