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?
