Google, Facebook, Twitter Execs Grilled By UK MPs On Privacy

Google executives got a rough ride from a House Of Commons committee, when they declined to systemically filter law-breaking web pages from search results. Associate general counsel Daphne Keller told the joint committee on privacy and injunctions that algorithmic filtering-out was technically feasible but not on the company’s policy agenda. The committee had called Keller along with public policy heads from Google (DJ Collins), Facebook (Lord Allan of Hallam) and Twitter (Colin Crowell).
