SPOT THE HOLE IN LOGIC : SEARCH ENGINE PRIVACY SOLUTION.


[+] serious ballot by LCD
created Sat Mar 10, 07

most search engine keeps a record of what you search for. They can easily reveal this to the prying eyes of the hackers and governments - but the data is necessary for delivering ideal search results.

My idea for a search engine privacy is simple. All search data is paired not with an IP, but with an ID. ID is stored in the cookie of the searcher's browser, along with a passcode. The passcode encypts the search data, so that only when the ID is presented with the passcode, the information can be accessed, giving privacy to the user of the search engine, as well as provide lockdown security to the personal data and search behavior.

can you spot a fault in that logic? add with detailed comment.

Endless loop

COMMENTS:
Voted : Endless loop
Three things...

#1 The information cannot be used to create bonafide searches excpet during the small time the user's records are open.

#2 During the time it is open, it can be accessed by the wrong people.

#3 It also seems like an endless loop.
