And the inevitable google-bombing and re-definition of various words.

Anyone googled "santorum" recently? The Wikipedia article has a nice rundown on how a US Senator's name ended up thus: 'The word santorum, as defined, has been characterized as "obscene", "unfit to print", or "vulgar".'

I eagerly await the day a Google image search for "David Cameron" starts returning furry-rape-sex pictures, and "Conservative Party" some even more "abhorrent" & "illegal material".

Beyond redefinitions, it turns out people are really good at creating codes. The french Argot was such a code, designed by thieves and criminals. It created a whole new wealth of dangerous words. Instead of Internet search tracking, they feared eavesdropping.

That law is pointless. You're supposed to use Internet searches as bait as long as it works, not force criminals to create a new language immediately! There were paedophiles before the Internet! And I question the idea that porn makes children go paedophiles to begin with, which I understand this "Think of the children" argument builds on.

This reminds me of the last days of Napster when they started filtering on lists of artists' names and you had to iterate over various misspellings to find the "consensus" on how to "properly misspell" names.

Perhaps 4chan will come to the rescue! I'm sure "Cameroning" will take on a new meaning soon :)

As someone with the first name of Cameron, I really, really hope not. (Although I could be convinced on the furry-rape-sex.)

Play nice! Only inject the IFRAME when you detect a visit from a government IP address.

Good plan. Perhaps it's time we started blacklisting government addresses?

Best idea I've heard since PRISM broke.

we can use this list: http://www.peerblock.com/

Dragnet as a Service? Sounds like it has potential.

I call this sort of thing a "singing frog".

Or use of any url shortener.

Is it still called rickrolling when the "surprise" is agents at your door?

It'll be a new variation of swatting: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Swatting

Might be a good countermeasure. If people are bold enough in numbers, everybody put the evil words into Google search, rendering the data useless. Though it'd have to be done on a regular basis, which is not going to work out.

That's how I think we should combat things like PRISM. If there was a mass protest every week, by millions of individuals, all searching/texting/emailing "kill president" "home made bomb" "chemical explosion", that data would become really really heavy. They might have to cut back on drag-netting everything and focus on specific targets.

while they claim that such data is used for "fighting terrorism", i really doubt that's actually the case - its more data retention, and availability when required for intelligence operations against targets that benefit the administration. So such polluting wouldn't really help imho.

Meh. I'm sure it's fairly easy to turn off their indexer for a specific period of time, say, the 3 hours the protest is going on.

Not only that, the real problem isn't being noticed today. The real problem is how much shit they have on you when they do eventually notice you. After they pull the string on a US Attorney's back and point her in your direction, she will use every scrap of data available to make as ridiculously overblown case a case against you as she can. Which problem these sorts of protests seem to make worse.

Coming up with some statistical filtering beyond `grep' shouldn't be too hard..
