JUDGE: GOOGLE MUST GIVE FEDS LIMITED ACCESS TO RECORDS
[SOURCE: C-Net|News.com, AUTHOR: ]
U.S. District Judge James Ware granted part of a Justice Department request for Google search data but said users' search queries were off-limits. In a decision issued Friday, Judge Ware said he would grant the U.S. Justice Department access to a portion of Google's index of Web sites but said he was hesitant to ask for users' search terms because of worries about the "perception by the public that this is subject to government scrutiny" when they type search terms into Google.com.
