Forgot your password?  Google Offers Encrypted Web Search Option
288  Posted by Soulskill from the helping-you-hide-your-pokemon-
obsession dept. alphadogg writes "People who want to shield
their use of Google's Web search engine from network snoops now
have the option of encrypting the session with SSL protection.
In the case of Google search, SSL will protect the transmission
of search queries entered by users and the search results
returned by Google servers. Google began rolling out the
encrypted version of its Web search engine on Friday. 'We think
users will appreciate this new option for searching. It's a
helpful addition to users' online privacy and security, and
we'll continue to add encryption support for more search
offerings,' wrote Evan Roseman, a Google software engineer, in
an official blog post."  Comment: Isn't this just plain begging
