In today's digital age, Google has become an integral part of our daily lives. Whether seeking information or solutions to problems, people turn to Google. However, are you aware that every Google search is tracked? Indeed, some searches can lead to legal trouble. Security agencies take such matters very seriously and may take direct action if necessary.
Searches to Avoid
Searching for information on bomb-making or weapons, seeking information related to drugs, attempting to access the dark web, or searching for objectionable content related to children—these all fall under the category of serious crimes. Many people perform such searches out of curiosity or as a joke, but security agencies do not take this lightly. Such search activity is considered suspicious, and the cyber crime cell may take immediate action.
Google Monitors Your Every Move
Many people are unaware that every Google search, your location, browsing history, and even your device information is recorded. Security agencies periodically analyze this data, especially when an individual exhibits unusual or suspicious activity. If your search history contains objectionable or illegal topics during this process, the police may arrive at your doorstep.
Legal Provisions and Penalties
In India, such digital activities are considered crimes under the IT Act 2000 and other cyber laws. Arrests can be made without a warrant in such cases. These offenses can result in heavy fines and imprisonment. Therefore, it is crucial to use Google or any search platform judiciously and avoid searching for any illegal information.
A single mistake on Google can land you in serious trouble. So, the next time you search for something, consider whether your curiosity might lead you down a criminal path.
