And yet the CIA and NAS said they never spy on Americans. Oh and did not spy on Trupm.

All this is telling me is that a smart person would use a public internet access point and not do this from home.

This was posted in Hackernews a week ago. So the title is very misleading. The police are not asking for all the results of every search from the city. They're asking for all the searches for a specific person, from IP addresses geographically located in and around the city, along with tons of insane information Google probably doesn't have. They're requesting it to help solve an identity theft case that cost a man thousands of dollars.
Just from the description there, it sounds no different to "this credit card has been compromised, where else was it used?"
If the guy lives in city A and they're asking about searches from his logged-in accounts originating from IPs in city B, then that sounds like a good way to narrow down where the culprit might be. There's a fair chance it's happening with the consent of the guy whose data's being requested, too, which changes the situation considerably.

It is really amazing how many stupids are in position to take very dangerous decisions like this one. Who is the stupid judge/court members that agreed with this? Did he go to a special school for handicapped persons? Who is responsible to have given him/her such power? Weren't there checks in place to avoid a stupid like this one to get so much power?
