Google making money from child pornography, alleges lawsuit

View at What is the Word
Jeffrey Toback, a legislator from Nassau County Legislature of New York, has brought about legal action against Google Inc for allegedly displaying paid links to sites that sell pornographic content involving minors through its search engine.

The complaint, which runs into 16 pages, accuses Google of being 'the largest and most efficient facilitator and distributor of child pornography in the world'. “When it comes to the protection and well-being of our nation's innocent children, (Google Inc) refuses to spend a dime's worth of resources to block child pornography from reaching children or to filter out search terms such as 'child pornography' or 'kiddie porn' or the content to which such terms lead,” Toback's complaint said. It added that though Google was willing to block the word 'democracy' in its Chinese searches, it wasn't ready to spend money to protect children. Surprisingly, Yahoo and MSN have neither been included in the lawsuit nor are likely to be.
