N.Y. Politician Drops 'Porn' Lawsuit Against Google
A Long Island politician has dropped a federal lawsuit that had claimed
the search engine company Google Inc. profits from child pornography. Jeffrey Toback, a member of the Nassau County Legislature from
Oceanside, filed suit in May claiming Google had "paid links" to Web
sites containing child pornography.



Toback said he dropped the lawsuit because "Google has offered to sit
down and discuss the issues." Google spokesman Steve Langdon said the Mountain
View, Calif.-based company was "pleased that the suit has been dismissed
and believe it was completely without merit."



A formal notice ending the suit was filed Wednesday.



Toback, who has sponsored local legislation raising the age that teenagers
can legally buy cigarettes to 19 and limiting teens' access to tanning salons,
said last month that he filed the lawsuit because oversight of Google was
beyond the purview of county legislators.
