The Journal Takes Us Inside the Google Drugs Sting : CJR

The Journal Takes Us Inside the Google Drugs Sting : CJR:
The Wall Street Journal has an excellent page-one story today on how federal agents caught Google deliberately breaking the law so it could make money off sites selling drugs online. That case ended with a settlement in which Google avoided criminal prosecution by paying the feds more than half a billion dollars.


If there’s something missing in the Journal’s piece, it’s any mention of the First Amendment implications raised by the case (not to mention the War on Drugs).
