A Quickie
So the DOJ wants Google search results as part of a study of the Child Online Protection Act. As reported today in this New York Times story, Google will comply because the DOJ has narrowed its request to 50,000 web site results, down from some significantly greater number.

This begs the question ... if this is all the government wants, why don't they just run the searches themselves? The address: http://www.google.com.

There must be something I'm not getting from the article, or that the reporter has not made clear.
