I was taught, YEARS AGO, that you don't post or search anything on the net that you wouldn't want in the headline of the newspaper tomorrow morning. IF these damn fools really want to waste their time reviewing my internet activity, I say "Have a great time guys. You'll be having a very boring time."

I suspect that would be the case with the majority of users. IF you spend your time researching how to make bombs, get away with murder, or joining an ISIS group, then you best find a better way to do that, cause you're gonna get caught.
