Heh, smells like another promo for Internet clampdown,
"policy-makers" and
"security practitioners" bribing "academics" to gloss the ploy --
there is
a flood of these shenanigans taking place worldwide in concert with
a flood
of alleged attacks by outlaw hackers on government and corporate
shared secrets
for controlling information.
TERRORISM and NEW MEDIA
http://www.dcu.ie/~cis/TNM/index.html
The purpose of this conference is to bring together academics from a
broad
range of disciplines with policy-makers and security practitioners
that have
knowledge and/or expertise that can facilitate advances in the
study of Terrorism
and New Media, particularly the Internet, in novel ways. This is
the first
academic conference to subject the relationship between terrorism
and new
media, particularly the Internet, to truly multi-disciplinary
scrutiny. The
one-day conference (Wednesday, 8 September) will feature a series
of panels
and a number of plenary addresses. The conference will be followed
on Thursday,
9 September by a workshop devoted to the robust debate and analysis
of currently
‘hot’ topics in the realm of terrorism and the Internet,
particularly
the question of the role of the Internet in processes of
radicalisation.

While I don't think these images actually violate Google's stated

unwilling to

regrettable.
