Listen "Google breaches Grace Millane suppression, detectives find key evidence"
Episode Synopsis
Internet giant Google has breached suppression on the identity of the 26-year-old man accused of murdering British backpacker Grace Millane. The company sent an email to certain subscribers, showing that New Zealanders had searched for the man's name 100,000 times. But the Google email itself put the man's name in its subject line, and linked his name explicitly to Grace Millane's death. It also included search terms that could lead users to more information about the man. While you may think that's natural justice, it actually jeopardises the chances of the Millane family having their day in court.Detectives have had a breakthrough on the case though, finding a shovel they've been seeking for several days. And the Government has announced an overhaul of our drugs laws.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
