Overture search blacklist?

[sasquatch]

Why is that Overture does not spit out search results for the keywords like:

Marijuana, Heroin, Cocaine, Lolita...???

YET, it has no problem displaying results for the keywords like MURDER, GUNS, ASSASINATION, HOMEMADE BOMB, SNUFF MOVIE, SICK PORN, ... etc...???

Frankly, I am sick and tired of hypocrat U.S. corporate, government and legal B.S., and their 19th century mindset.

Ask Overture

I guess it has little to do with hypocrisy but whether something is ILLEGAL or not. Their corporate counsel TEAM have probably advised them on their liability.

On second thought, perhaps nobody is silly enough to search for cocaine on-line. LOL!

Last time I checked SNUFF MOVIE was illegal too!! Not to mention a MURDER!!!

And how can a Lolita, a fictional literary character from a classic novel available in any U.S. bookstore, be illegal exactly??

Well ... I may not have put it in the best way, but my point is that Overture for example is more interested in protecting themselves from any possible legal threat THAN being a "politically correct" hypocrite. Remeber, corporates THINK differently.

So you believe that Overture feel that they have no legal threats if they post results for HOMEMADE BOMBS, MURDERS or SNUFF MOVIES, but they do if they post results for Marijuana?

If that's so, (and it has to be something of that nature, otherwise they would post those results) then do you see the ever continuing absurdity of the U.S. corporate/legal mindset?
