The EU has warned search engines to delete personal data of their users within 6 months. Glad that governments are starting to take notice about privacy. More on this story here.

It is the same in France: some association want it to be more controlled. I don't know what the government will do about it.

And here the US wants the search engines to keep searches for much longer than they even want to, including at the ISP level. Good to see some governments working toward curbing privacy problems than creating them. Not that I'd care if people looked up to see if I searched for 'program snippets in c' or not. :)

It has come to the point where you can find anything on the internet. I think this was a good move.
