Illegal movie download - Google knows what people want...

Google's spell checking software automatically looks at your query and checks to see if you are using the most common version of a word's spelling. If it calculates that you're likely to generate more relevant search results with an alternative spelling, it will ask "Did you mean: (more common spelling)?". So far so good. But did you ever search for legal movies on Google? No? Well, try Google Germany and search for "legaler filmdownload" (means legal film download). The result is quite surprising. Google knows what users really want: Google comes up with the question: Did you mean "illegaler filmdownload" :-)
