McCullagh: Christian Site Makes Google's Hit List

GOOGLE DELETES MORE THAN 100 SITES FROM ENGINE
By Declan McCullagh - CNET News

Google, the world's most popular search engine, has quietly deleted more than
100 controversial sites from some search result listings.
Absent from Google's French and German listings are Web sites that are anti-
Semitic, pro-Nazi, or related to white supremacy, according to a new report
from Harvard University's Berkman Center. Also banned is Jesus-is-lord.com, a
fundamentalist Christian site that is adamantly opposed to abortion.
Google confirmed on Wednesday that the sites had been removed from listings
available at Google.fr and Google.de. The removed sites continue to appear in
listings on the main Google.com site.
The Harvard report, prepared by law student Ben Edelman and assistant
professor Jonathan Zittrain, and scheduled to be released Thursday, is the
result of automated testing of Google's massive 2.5 billion-page index and a
comparison of the results returned by different foreign-language versions.
The duo found 113 excluded sites, most with racial overtones.
"To avoid legal liability, we remove sites from Google.de search results
pages that may conflict with German law," said Google spokesman Nate Tyler.
He indicated that each site that was delisted came after a specific complaint
from a foreign government.
German law considers the publication of Holocaust denials and similar
material as an incitement of racial and ethnic hatred, and therefore illegal.
In the past, Germany has ordered Internet providers to block access to U.S.
Web sites that post revisionist literature.
France has similar laws that allowed a students' antiracism group to
successfully sue Yahoo in a Paris court for allowing Third Reich memorabilia
and Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf" to be sold on the company's auction sites. In
November 2001, a U.S. judge ruled that the First Amendment's guarantee of
free speech protects Yahoo from liability.
Google's battles
The Harvard report comes as Google is becoming increasingly embroiled in
international political disputes over copyright and censorship. China blocked
access to Google last month.
Google was criticized in March for bowing to a demand from the Church of
Scientology to delete critical sites from its index. In a response that won
praise, Google replied by pledging to report future legal threats to the
ChillingEffects.org site run by law school clinics.
As Google has become the way more and more people find information on the
Internet, it has also become an increasingly visible target for copyright
complaints about cached information and allegedly infringing links.
ChillingEffect.org's Google section lists 16 requests or legal threats the
company has received in the past three months. One Google competitor and
critic even suggested that the wildly popular search engine be transformed
into a government controlled "public utility."
Edelman, who created the program that tested URLs against Google's index,
said he was investigating a tip about Google's German-language version.
"One concern that I've had for some time vis-à-vis filtering is that
filtering is almost always secretive," Edelman said. "In the (library
filtering) case, that meant you couldn't look at the list of blocked sites.
In the Chinese government case, you can't see what sites are being blocked."
Edelman, who is a first-year law student, testified as an expert witness for
the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in a court challenge to a law
requiring libraries to install filtering software if they accept federal
funds. He is also a plaintiff in a second lawsuit filed in June to eviscerate
key portions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Google's response
Google refused to reply to a list of questions that CNET News.com sent via e-
mail, including which sites have been delisted, how many sites have been
delisted, what standards are used, and what other Google-operated sites have
less-than-complete listings.

In an e-mail response, Google's Tyler said: "As a matter of company policy we
do not provide specific details about why or when we removed any one
particular site from our index. We occasionally receive notices from
partners, users, government agencies, and the like about sites in our index.
We carefully consider any credible complaint on a case-by-case basis and take
necessary action when needed. This is not pre-emptive--we only react to
requests that come to us...to avoid legal liability, we remove sites from
Google search results pages that may conflict with local laws."
Tyler said an internal team involving lawyers, management, and engineers
makes the final decision on what to remove. "At Google we take these types of
decisions very seriously," he said. "The objective is to limit legal exposure
while continuing to deliver high quality search results that enable our users
to find the information they need quickly and easily."
Tyler pointed to Google's terms of service agreement, which says Google
will "consider on a case-by-case basis requests" to remove links from its
index.
A moving target
Because Google has to keep track of a constantly moving target-new sites
arguably illegal under French or German law appear every day-the search
engine is encountering the same problems of over inclusiveness that
traditional filtering software has experienced.
According to the Harvard report, some sites that Google does not list include
1488.com, a "Chinese legal consultation network," and 14words.com, a discount
Web-hosting service and some conservative, anti-abortion religious sites.
Those sites do not appear to violate either German or French laws.
Banned from Google.de and Google.fr listings is Stormfront.org, one of the
Internet's most popular "white pride" sites. Stormfront features discussion
areas, a library of white nationalist articles and essays by David Duke, a
former Ku Klux Klan leader.
"We've been dealing with this for quite a few years," said Don Black, who
runs the site. "The German police agencies seem obsessed with Stormfro

"The German police agencies seem obsessed with Stormfront even though we're not
focused on any German language material."
Black, who learned a few months ago that Google.de delisted Stormfront, says he
doesn't hold it against the Mountain View, Calif.-based Company. "Google is
trying to conform to their outrageous laws," Black said. "So there's really
nothing we can do about it. It's really a French and German issue rather than a
Google issue."
The First Amendment
Because Google is a company and not a government agency, it has the right in
general to delete listings from its service or alter the way they appear. (On
Tuesday, however, CNET News.com reported that an Oklahoma advertising company
has sued Google over its position in search results.)
"Google may not only have the legal right to (delete listings), they may have
the legal obligation to do it," said Barry Steinhardt, director of the ACLU's
technology and liberty program, and a co-founder of the Global Internet Liberty
Campaign.
"Over the long term, this will become a significant issue on the Net,"
Steinhardt said. "There's a wide variety of laws around the world prohibiting
different forms of speech. You can imagine what the Chinese government
prohibits versus what the French government prohibits versus what the U.S.
government prohibits."
Edelman, of Harvard's Berkman Center, suggests that Google find a way to alert
users that information is missing from their search results.
"If Google is prohibited from linking to Stormfront, they could include a
listing but no link," Edelman said. "And if they can't even include a listing
for Stormfront, they could at least report the fact that they've hidden results
from the user. The core idea here is that there's no need to be secretive."

Wprowadzenie do programu:

Obrit Hume, kierownik programu
Minęło więcej niż 16 lat odkąd cywil, pracujący dla Marynarki Wojennej (Navy),
zostal oskarżony o przekazywanie tajemnic do Izraela. Jonatan Pollard przyznał
się do konspirowania dla popełnienia szpiegostwa i odbywa karę dożywotniego
więzienia. Wpier izraelscy przywódcy twierdzili, że Pollard był częścią
przestępczej operacji, ale później przyznali się do odpowiedzialności za jego
działalność.
Obecnie wiadomości telewizyjne Foc News dowiedział się, że niektórzy
amerykańscy detektywi wierzą, iż Izraelczycy znowu są zaangażowani w
szpiegowanie w i przeciwko USA, którzy mogli wiedzieć rzeczy o których nie
mówili nam przed 11 września 2001.

Korespondent Fox News Carl Cameron ma szczegóły w tej pierwszej z czterech
części serii.

(Taśma wideo)

Carl Cameron, korepondent Fox News:
Od 11 września więcej niż 60 Izraelczyków przetrzymuje się w areszcie, albo na
podstawie nowego prawa antyterrorystycznego, albo prawa imigracyjnego. Garść
czynnych izraelskich wojskowych znajdowało się między tymi aresztowanym, według
detektywów, którzy powiadają, że niektórzy aresztowani również nie zdali testu
pytań poligraficznych, gdy byli pytani o domniemaną działalność zwiadowczą
przeciwko Stanom Zjednoczonym.

Nie ma indycji, aby Izraelczycy byli zamieszani w ataki 11 września, ale
detektywi podejrzewają, że Iraelczycy mogli zebrać wiadomości o atakach
wcześniej i nie podzielić się nimi. Wysokopostawiony detektyw powiedział, że
istnieją związki. Ale kiedy pytany o szczegóły, on zdecydowanie odmówił
opisania ich, mówiąc: “dowody wiążące tych Izraelczyków do 11 września są
obwarowane tajemnicą. Nie mogę powiedzieć wam o dowodach, które zebrano. To
jest informacja tajna.”
Fox News dowiedział się, że jedna grupa Izraelczyków, widziana w Północnej
Karolinie, jest podejrzana o trzymanie mieszkania w Kaliforni dla szpiegowania
Arabów, których USA bada o związkach z terroryzmem. Liczne tajne dokumenty
uzyskane przez Fox News wskazują, że nawet przed 11 września inni Izraelczycy w
liczbie aż 140 zostali zatrzymani albo aresztowani w tajemnym dochodzeniu o
szpiegostwo Izraelczyków przeciwko Stanom Zjednoczonym.

Detektywi z licznych rządowych agencji są częścią grupy badawczej, która
kompilowała dowody od połowy lat 90-tych. Dokumenty te wyszczególniają setki
incydentów w miastach i osiedlach w całym kraju, o których dtektywi
mówią: “mogły być zorganizowaną działalnościa szpiegowską”.

Pierwsza część śledztwa skupia się na Izraelczykach, którzy powiadają, że są
studentami z University of Jeruzalem i Bazala Academy. Oni wielokrotnie
kontaktowali się z personelem rządowym, mówi raport, mówiąc, że chcą sprzedać
tanie obrazy i wyroby rzemieślnicze.

Dokumenty mówią, że “wybierali oni i penetrowali bazy wojskowe”. DEA, FBI i
tuziny obiektów rządowych, nawet tajne biura i zakamuflowane domy dla policji i
kontrwywiadu. Większośc rozpytanych “stwierdziła, że oni służyli w wojskowej
służbie wywiadowczej, elektronicznym podsłuchu i jednostkach amunicji
wybuchowej”.

W wyniku innej części śledztwa zatrzymano i aresztowano tuziny Izraelczyków w
amerykańskich domach towarowych, gdzie sprzedawali zabawki nazywane Puzzle Car
i Zoom Copter. Detektywi podejrzewają pozorację.

Fox News Series On
ISRAELI SPYING IN AMERICA
16 November, 2002
Note: This stunning series ran on Fox News
some months ago. It is well worth reading now.

Fox News Special Report
Part One

BRIT HUME, HOST: It has been more than 16 years since a civilian working for
the Navy was charged with passing secrets to Israel. Jonathan Pollard pled
guilty to conspiracy to commit espionage and is serving a life sentence. At
first, Israeli leaders claimed Pollard was part of a rogue operation, but later
took responsibility for his work.

Now Fox News has learned some U.S. investigators believe that there are
Israelis again very much engaged in spying in and on the U.S., who may have
known things they didn't tell us before Sept. 11. Fox News correspondent Carl
Cameron has details in the first of a four-part series.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

CARL CAMERON, FOX NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Since Sept. 11, more than 60 Israelis
have been arrested or detained, either under the new patriot anti-terrorism
law, or for immigration violations. A handful of active Israeli military were
among those detained, according to investigators, who say some of the detainees
also failed polygraph questions when asked about alleged surveillance
activities against and in the United States.

There is no indication that the Israelis were involved in the 9/11 attacks, but
investigators suspect that they Israelis may have gathered intelligence about
the attacks in advance, and not shared it. A highly placed investigator said
there are "tie-ins." But when asked for details, he flatly refused to describe
them, saying, "evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot
tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information."

Fox News has learned that one group of Israelis, spotted in North Carolina
recently, is suspected of keeping an apartment in California to spy on a group
of Arabs who the United States is also investigating for links to terrorism.
Numerous classified documents obtained by Fox News indicate that even prior to
Sept. 11, as many as 140 other Israelis had been detained or arrested in a
secretive and sprawling investigation into suspected espionage by Israelis in
the United States.

Investigators from numerous government agencies are part of a working group
that's been compiling evidence since the mid '90s. These documents detail
hundreds of incidents in cities and towns across the country that investigators
say, "may well be an organized intelligence gathering activity."

The first part of the investigation focuses on Israelis who say they are art
students from the University of Jerusalem and Bazala Academy. They repeatedly
made contact with U.S. government personnel, the report says, by saying they
wanted to sell cheap art or handiwork.

Documents say they, "targeted and penetrated military bases." The DEA, FBI and
dozens of government facilities, and even secret offices and unlisted private
homes of law enforcement and intelligence personnel. The majority of those
questioned, "stated they served in military intelligence, electronic
surveillance intercept and or explosive ordinance units."

Another part of the investigation has resulted in the detention and arrests of
dozens of Israelis at American mall kiosks, where they've been selling toys
called Puzzle Car and Zoom Copter. Investigators suspect a front.

Shortly after The New York Times and Washington Post reported the Israeli
detentions last months, the carts began vanishing. Zoom Copter's Web page
says, "We are aware of the situation caused by thousands of mall carts being
closed at the last minute. This in no way reflects the quality of the toy or
its salability. The problem lies in the operators' business policies."

Why would Israelis spy in and on the U.S.? A general accounting office
investigation referred to Israel as country A and said, "According to a U.S.
intelligence agency, the government of country A conducts the most aggressive
espionage operations against the U.S. of any U.S. ally."

A defense intelligence report said Israel has a voracious appetite for
information and said, "the Israelis are motivated by strong survival instincts
which dictate every possible facet of their political and economical policies.
It aggressively collects military and industrial technology and the U.S. is a
high priority target."

The document concludes: "Israel possesses the resources and technical
capability to achieve its collection objectives."

(END VIDEO CLIP)

A spokesman for the Israeli embassy here in Washington issued a denial saying
that any suggestion that Israelis are spying in or on the U.S. is "simply not
true." There are other things to consider. And in the days ahead, we'll take a
look at the U.S. phone system and law enforcement's methods for wiretaps. And
an investigation that both have been compromised by our friends overseas.

HUME: Carl, what about this question of advanced knowledge of what was going to
happen on 9/11? How clear are investigators that some Israeli agents may have
known something?

CAMERON: It's very explosive information, obviously, and there's a great deal
of evidence that they say they have collected - none of it necessarily
conclusive. It's more when they put it all together. A bigger question, they
say, is how could they not have know? Almost a direct quote.

HUME: Going into the fact that they were spying on some Arabs, right?

CAMERON: Correct.

HUME: All right, Carl, thanks very much.
