In today's digital age, every piece of information is just a search away. Whether it's for studies, work, or simply out of curiosity, people type anything into Google without thinking. However, very few people are aware that some searches can directly lead to legal trouble. In many cases, even a wrong or sensitive search can trigger a police investigation. So, let's tell you today what you shouldn't search for on Google; otherwise, the police might come and take you away.

Your every online activity is being monitored.

Digital information such as Google searches, IP addresses, and location are recorded by service providers. If needed, law enforcement agencies can obtain this information through a court order. In India, action is taken based on digital evidence under the IT Act and other criminal laws, especially when a search indicates a threat or the possibility of a crime.

Which searches can immediately raise suspicion?

If someone searches for how to make weapons, information on preparing bombs or poisons, how to kidnap someone, finding a hitman, making or buying drugs, or information related to attacks on government or public places, it can immediately come under the radar of security agencies. Similarly, words related to terrorists are also considered very sensitive.

Searching for child pornography is the biggest crime.

One of the most serious crimes on the internet is searching for or viewing child sexual content. In India, this is illegal under the POCSO Act and the IT Act. Searching for, viewing, or downloading such content can lead to several years of imprisonment and fines.

Information related to hacking can also put you in danger.

Searches like how to hack someone's account or how to break a Wi-Fi password also fall directly under the category of cybercrime. Under the IT Act 2000, searching for unauthorized system access or hacking tools is illegal. This can not only lead to legal action, but also expose your device to malware.

Searching for pirated movies and content is also wrong.

Searches related to free movie downloads or watching new films for free may seem common, but this is also a legal offense. Piracy cases can result in fines and imprisonment. Using OTT platforms is considered a much better and safer legal option.

Searching for drugs, weapons, and the dark web

Searching for information related to drugs, illegal weapons, or dark web marketplaces is also considered a serious crime. The Narcotics Control Bureau and cyber agencies constantly monitor such activities. Repeated searches for such things can trigger digital surveillance.
