Hail Google well met

So W's people are trying to make Google give it records of all the searches made during a given week. They issued a subpeona for the info last summer and Google refused to comply so now the gubment is trying to get a federal judge to compel them by issuing an order or something.
Said Google:
"Google's acceding to the request would suggest that it is willing to reveal information about those who use its services. This is not a perception that Google can accept. "
Google also worried that this information could fall into the hands of "miscreants seeking to harm Google's business". Thats pretty cool that they think giving it to the gubment will result in miscreants getting it. Yahoo got the same subpeona by the way, and they gave it up like an insecure high school cheerleader. Thanks yahoo!!
