The New York Times reported on a randomly chosen AOL user whose Internet searches were suddenly made public. Some of them were quotidian — ordinary, not unique — but personal nonetheless:

"Her searches are a catalog of intentions, curiosity, anxieties and quotidian questions. There was the day in May, for example, when she typed in 'termites,' then 'tea for good health' then 'mature living,' all within a few hours."
