Under the headline, "Google, the terrorists' friend", they've discovered you can find a manual on how to use a car as a weapon with just two minutes searching. Presumably it said "drive car at people".
Terrorism is all about spreading fear. Why are the Mail doing their job for them?

It is a tragedy but people must laugh all over Asia, Africa, South America, at how guarded we are from true horrors.
I have seen more sentimental quotes in 2 days than in my lifetime.
We don't know how good we've got it in the UK i think.
"JUST" Two minutes? Did they stop to make a cup of tea half way through or something?Originally Posted by lardy
The Daily Mail is for old people, they are playing to their base. I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would read that rubbish.
Quite irresponsible of the mail IMO, basically telling would be terrorists where they can search for instructions for this kind of thing. They should be ashamed..
Yep, if it wasn't for articles such as this most terror plots using cars would be stopped at ' Turn key in ignition, check rear-view mirror. '
Irresponsible twats.
The worrying thing is that there are readers who buy the story.

Those moronic, illogical, knee-jerk responses are exactly what happened with the "arm are polise" thread.
The New Statesman has torn it to shreds

My favourites.
Do they want to ban cars?
Do they want to ban search results about cars?
Because if so, where will that one guy from primary school get his latest profile picture from?
So,so true.
MailOnline has gotten too big I think. They hire teenagers and twenty year olds to pump out any rubbish:

Go to the comments of that today and filter for the best rated.
It has gone from being a news source to basically being soft porn as well. Constant pointless articles with arses left right and centre.
I can't remember the hard copy version being as bad as it is now as well. It is as if they are taking their hated image and running with it.
Without meaning to be seen to take anything too lightly, nor disrespect those who have paid the price, nor ignore very real threats, I also suspect that it is handy/useful to have us all believing that we live in fear. For whatever reasons, by whomever .
The New Statesmen article is stupid. To write an article attacking a paper for writing something everyone knows is just as pointless as the original article. In fact, it is worse because it adds an extra layer of redundancy.
New Statesman thing is stupid, agree. But it's just a blog while the Mail story is front page of the paper. It's definitely not worse.
Google are a part of the problem.
You writing that post is stupid. To write a post attacking an article attacking a paper for writing something everyone knows is just as pointless as the original article.
Is this the best example they could use?
2 minutes? What are they using, dial up?
I expect they can only type with one finger at a time.
Wrong. At least one poster did not know The New Statesman article was stupid.
.... and it continues !!
What have you got against old people? I would guess you're no spring chicken yourself. There are many worse papers than The Mail. The latest Daily Mail campaign against fly tipping will do more good for the environment than anything The Green party will ever do. They are just a load of poseurs.
What are the "many" papers worse than the mail, out of interest?
Don't bother to try then, oh wise one..
