Lets just say I enjoy a challenge.

It isn't enough to avoid evil with the hope that I can safely arrive at my death. Evil needs to be confronted, not avoided. If avoiding evil were the aim in life, I'd move to a remote part of Alaska and be a hermit. If evil gets the best of me, then so be it. Likewise, the evil in me needs to be opposed and overcome, also not possible by living as a hermit in Alaska.

Regarding google searches, I recall a guy who had found himself on government radar due to googling things like how to get away with murder... turns out he was a screenwriter for a crime show.

Context is everything.

At some point I expect the brain will be mapped out well enough to have a reliable enough lie detector that can be used to dismiss someone as a suspect at the very least. As long as there exists a disconnect between the pursuit of justice, and the criminal legal system, we'll continue to have problems though. The incentive is to successfully convict, not to pursue facts/truth.
