Japanese Court Misunderstands Autocomplete, Orders Google To Turn It Off To Protect 'Privacy'

In recent years there has been a series of trials around the world from Google "auto", which is based on research of what has already written and suggests the fully searchable as possible. The function can be very useful (and fun, sometimes). In the U.S., the entertainment industry is scared about it, leading to censorship of Google hamfisted strange results.



But it's not good enough for some. We covered the case of France and Italy, where Google has been convicted of "suggestions" that the user does not like (usually involving complained of a bad thing). Of course, you do not quite understand the function and suggests that Google is directly saying that this is the best suggestion (actually, I wonder if this is why Google stopped calling the "Google Suggest" and moved to just called "AutoComplete"). Finally, as noted by TNW is that the court has ordered Google to Japan to turn it off completely, saying it is a violation of the

Privacy . Privacy? Huh? Basically, it looks like a little boy complains that his name was searched suggestions of all kinds of bad things (the article says "criminal acts"), and the man thinks that his dismissal and the difficulty of finding another job was due to this. Of course, it is difficult to see how this is a

privacy

problem at all, or what Google's fault. Google said that as a U.S. company has no obligation to obey the court order.
The thing is that the boy is still unknown. If indeed the same name, which could solve the problem by promoting other stories about how it is
not actually associated with these crimes, and likely to raise at the beginning. Meanwhile, what does it take for a judge to have someone who really understands the technology for some advice before making a decision that demonstrates a fundamental ignorance of what technology is?
