Question Do you know what’s the most powerful search engine? Baidu? Google? Yahoo!? Bing? ??? Human Flesh Search Engines

What’s Human Flesh Search Engines? traditional search provide technical/professional Q&A support engines: Baidu,Google,Yahoo!,Bing.. reveal private/classified information about specific People: Netizens individuals or organizations Interaction: people exchange theirs Or whatever you want to know !!! � information in the internet Curiosity: They are keen to know the truth, or they are lonely. By definition, human flesh search is the use of modern information technology (TV, Computer, Radio, Newspapers, etc.), shifting from the traditional Web-based information search to the Relational networks in community activities, changing boring search process to “ One person ask questions and gets a million of responses ”

Some typical cases The first time HFSE came into the spotlight was in 2001. An anonymous netizen posted a beautiful girl’s picture on MOP forum (a famous forum in China ), saying that she was his girlfriend. Interested netizens soon found out that the girl is a model for Microsoft, so they publicized her personal information to prove that the anonymous netizen was a liar. It took only two days to have this girl’s information posted once again on MOP forum . Since then, a real sense, be called "human flesh search" the Internet search operations was born. A 41-year-old nurse named Wang Jue was suspended from her job when netizens using Human Flesh Search dug out her personal details while probing a video that showed her stabbing a kitten in the eyes with her high heels, and crushing its head. This is a landmark event for the human flesh search. At this point, the human flesh search theme have changed from initial banter, entertainment content to promote truth, virtue and beauty. There was observed a peak of Human Flesh Search when a husband whose wife committed suicide because of his betrayal, a man who disrupted torch relay in Paris, and a girl from northeastern China who dared to criticize those affected by the massive earthquake (Sichuan, China) became targets. If you LOVE him(her),put him(her) to the Human Flesh Search Engines, because you will know everything about him(her) If you HATE him(her),put him(her) to the Human Flesh Search Engines, because there is HELL !!!

HFSE is like a double-edged sword Justice side Helps a lot of people find their families during the earthquake occurred in May 2008, Sichuan, China A powerful tool used by netizens to supervise “special group” like government officials and Public figures. Enforce the majority’s opinion. Evil side HFSE places personal privacy and personal reputation at risk. HFSE may cause crime sometimes. No relative law to regulate HFSE.

legality Human flesh search engines are a powerful tool. Instead of using automatic algorithms to obtain results, human flesh searches can often deliver more valuable results for some gossip searches and for searches with no single answer, so it can have many uses, including online tracing…and it can do it better than Baidu or Google. We can say that the human flesh search engines have more potential search power than machines. � The initiators and participants of the Human flesh search are often the internet vigilante mob, they will defend the weak or even lose their mind when angry things happen. Those who mistreated the vulnerable are likely to incur the wrath of netizens. Human flesh searches discover the perpetrator's name, identity, home address and other personal information, which is then widely publicized. They may not live a normal life, lose their job, or even lose their family as a result!!!

legality Everything have two sides. Now, our task is to improve the legal system and prevent the violation of personal privacy. Holding a positive attitude � The human flesh search engines can not only expose the truth behind some incidents, enforce social and moral order in the shortest time, but also extend to places that a network cannot reach to, thereby broadening the way people access knowledge and fully mobilizing the power of human networks. This carries forward the internet spirit of cooperation. Holding a negative attitude � The unauthorized disclosure of personal information is a blatant violation of privacy. It can cause somebody’s social esteem to drop and create emotional stress, thus infringing on his reputational rights. The participants have a tendency to become internet vigilante mobs. This should be regulated by the legal system!

My Opinions Network knowledge sharing is an inevitable trend of social progress. Human flesh search engines are an Internet revolution of fully mobilizing the masses of the Internet. It promotes cooperation by many different people. As a tool for group activities, human flesh searches also need to comply with relevant laws and regulations, not contrary to public order and the good ethics and morals of society. As the facilitator of human flesh search (such as forums and other websites), will undoubtedly have to bear more social responsibility, they should refine the resources of human flesh search engine and constraint inappropriate speech and behavior. I believe that the human flesh search will develop healthily and become standard, and it will serve society at last.
