Muslim Google hits the Web (Search engine for Muslims ONLY)
Hürriyet Daily News ^ | 8/23/10 | Staff

Posted on 08/23/2010 10:41:07 AM PDT by nmh

According to the Web site, it uses the database of the well-known search engine Google and is powered by it, but filters search terms in accordance with Islam.

...

Do you think it might be a response to the Pornistan article at Fox News. Instant recall:

No. 1 Nation in Sexy Web Searches? Call it Pornistan By Kelli Morgan Published July 13, 2010 FoxNews.com

They may call it the "Land of the Pure," but Pakistan turns out to be anything but.

The Muslim country, which has banned content on at least 17 websites to block offensive and blasphemous material, is the world's leader in online searches for pornographic material, FoxNews.com has learned.

...

So here's the irony: Google ranks Pakistan No. 1 in the world in searches for pornographic terms, outranking every other country in the world in searches per person for certain sex-related content.

Pakistan is top dog in searches per-person for "horse sex" since 2004, "donkey sex" since 2007, "rape pictures" between 2004 and 2009, "rape sex" since 2004, "child sex" between 2004 and 2007 and since 2009, "animal sex" since 2004 and "dog sex" since 2005, according to Google Trends and Google Insights, features of Google that generate data based on popular search terms.

The country also is tops -- or has been No. 1 -- in searches for "sex," "camel sex," "rape video," "child sex video" and some other searches that can't be printed here.

...

Pakistan temporarily banned Facebook in May when Muslim groups protested the “Everybody Draw Muhammad Day” page, where users were encouraged to upload pictures of the Prophet Muhammad. The page remained on Facebook, but Pakistani users were unable to view it, said Andrew Noyes, manager, Facebook’s Public Policy Communication.

...

The country’s punishment for those charged with blasphemy is execution...

"This is a search engine to filter inconvenient results in search engines," the Web site states. For example, a search for "alcohol" first lists results about alcohol in Islam. Meanwhile, words like "porn," or its Turkish version "porno," and the word "sex," cannot be searched for using the engine. However, "seks" the Turkish word for "sex" can be searched. "MüslümanGoogle.com does not profit from advertisements," the Web site states, adding that all advertising income will be donated to charitable foundations that send aid to Palestine.

The punishment for porn is execution.

Anyone know of ANY male “executed” for porn that is a Muslim in the middle east?

Save it to go against Google’s lawyers. They will not be thrilled

Has Google come up with a search engine for Christians, Catholics or Jews that don't want porn coming up in searches? Or just Muslims?

Freedom loving companies should never bow to this kind of nonsense.

See how easy it is for a misunderstanding between civilized society and 7th century savages?

They are not look for porn, they are simply trying to make sense out of their family tree.

No, but any woman who turns in a man for watching porn would be stoned to death because, hey, she had to look to know he was doing it, right?

I wonder if it filters 'Obama'.

Google has been growing smarter of late ... It seems to know what I'm looking for even before I do.

“Google did not come up with the Muslim search site.”

They had Googles permission to do this:

According to the Web site, it uses the database of the well-known search engine Google and is powered by it, but filters search terms in accordance with Islam.

It is stated on the Web site’s “About Us” section that the engine was built on the substructure of Google and anyone could build a similar site. Some terms are not available to search at all, while in the results for searchable terms, results about Islam come first. “The best search for Islam,” the Web site states on its main page, on which the color green, known as Islam’s color is used.

Which means Christians, Jewish, Buddhist ... can do the same thing.

Would you have a problem with a Christian based website that used the Google engine but limited searches to sites acceptable to their beliefs?
