Google will cooperate

<A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1939579,00.asp?kc=ewnws032006dtx1k0000599">Google says it will comply</A> with a court order that it let the U.S. Department of Justice see a selection of its Web sites, but not the search terms the government also requested. Google says it plans to let the U.S. government examine a minuscule snippet of its stockpile of indexed Web sites. The company was ordered to do just that on March 17 by U.S. District Court Judge James Ware. Ware has given Google, based in Mountain View, Calif., until April 3 to hand over a randomly generated selection of about 50,000 Web sites that could be included in its search results.
