a-google-search-tool-by-noah-veltman-that-compares

A Google search tool by Noah Veltman that compares search results from different countries. This is similar to Image Atlas by Aaron Swartz, but perhaps worth revisiting anyway now that Governments might choose to respond to the NSA’s surveillance with a Balkanisation of the Internet as proposed in the Guardian recently: 

The first is that the days of the internet as a truly global network are numbered. It was always a possibility that the system would eventually be Balkanised, ie divided into a number of geographical or jurisdiction-determined subnets as societies such as China, Russia, Iran and other Islamic states decided that they needed to control how their citizens communicated. Now, Balkanisation is a certainty.
