Searching For Trouble With Google 506
achilles writes "From a recent eWeek article: 'Whether they realize it or not, many people leave sensitive information out in plain view on Web sites. But sooner or later, a Google search will dig it up.' The article goes on to list some examples such as 'a search for credit card numbers. Try this one, for "Visa 4366000000000000..4366999999999999' and other 'risky data' from careless users, such as QUICKEN files etc."

Can I mirror these files on my web site?
I've downloaded a few but don't plan on doing anything dirty. Maybe I'll send out a few letters telling people that they should watch what they post on-line
I can see the reponse:
"Honey, do you know anyone named 'ImaLamer'?"
"No dear"
"Well, he or she claims that your bank information is online"
"Must be some sort of scam sweetie, toss it"

Google rocks! Don't forget to google for your FLEXLM license files for your Solaris and similar systems, or your crusty Digital licenses for VMS, OSF/1, etc.
