In case you wanted to trust Scroogle and the US Government even less!
Federal investigators have ordered Google to provide information on all viewers of select YouTube videos, according to multiple court orders obtained by Forbes. Privacy experts from multiple civil rights groups told Forbes they think the orders are unconstitutional because they threaten to turn innocent YouTube viewers into criminal suspects.In a just-unsealed case from Kentucky reviewed by Forbes, undercover cops sought to identify the individual behind the online moniker “elonmuskwhm,” who they suspect of selling bitcoin for cash, potentially running afoul of money laundering laws and rules around unlicensed money transmitting.
In conversations with the user in early January, undercover agents sent links of YouTube tutorials for mapping via drones and augmented reality software, then asked Google for information on who had viewed the videos, which collectively have been watched over 30,000 times.
The court orders show the government telling Google to provide the names, addresses, telephone numbers and user activity for all Google account users who accessed the YouTube videos between January 1 and January 8, 2023. The government also wanted the IP addresses of non-Google account owners who viewed the videos. The cops argued, “There is reason to believe that these records would be relevant and material to an ongoing criminal investigation, including by providing identification information about the perpetrators.”......

Feds are even lower than zigger somehow.
A zigger is born a zigger it can't help it. But to be a fed, you must willingly participate, willingly comply, willingly take part in this nonsense.
Kill a fed. Behead a fed. R*pe a fed with a broomstick.

Has anyone seen interviews with feds? It's a little known fact that feds and bureaucrats aren't particularly smart, even people like spies. They support big government (no surprise there) because they think they're smarter and better equipped for moral arbitration. Federal workers embody the most pernicious form of liberal midwit—losers, followers, and sociopaths—B students with very little self awareness who willingly engage in the unaccountable because reputation follows you everywhere else.

I remember that one day for some Church activity where people with different jobs would explain their job we once had a pair of FBI agents come over. They told us all sorts of stories and showed us a fricking negotiator-van they brought, filled to the brim with all sorts of cool shit. One of the coolest days tbqh.

There was one posted here recently where they found some arsonists after google gave over every IP address that had searched the house. At least in that case 5 people had been killed. But it's still concerning how someone could get caught up in a criminal investigation just because you searched or viewed something online.
Like what if you had delivered food to that house and then google also told the kkkops you'd searched "How long can I light a peepee on fire without damage?" And then they show up to your house and find
@Holly_Jolly_Kong tied to a table covered in gasoline. To remove his hair of course. Nothing illegal.
What happens then?
