Google Registers Political Action Committee Related Domains

We posted the other day that Google had registered with the Federal Elections Commission for a Political Action Committee. We also included direct links to the primary documents. So, we don’t think it’s a big surprise to see Google register several PAC related domain names. Here’s the list:

+ google-net-pac.com/net/org
+ google-netpac.com/net/org
+ googlenetpac.com/net/org
+ googlenetpack.com/net/org
+ netpac-google.com/net/org
+ netpacgoogle.com/net/org

See Also: Primary Documents For the Google PAC Along with Documents from MS, Yahoo, and IAC PAC’s
We’ve also included a direct link to a Congressional Research Service Report About Campaign Finance.

Google Tweaks Robots.txt File
Two new disallows have been added
Disallow: /base/search?
No Google Base pages are crawlable?
Disallow: /urchin_test/
A test Urchin (aka Google Analytics) is running or about to run?
I’m sure our friend, Garett Rogers, will have some analysis soon.
