Emotional Search

Integration of location into search engines for early warning system

Most people are wary of invasive spying technologies. Imagine for instance that all our searches on Google were monitored. Most people would be horrified. Let us however imagine scenarios where it may help. For instance, a child searching for information on "child cruelty" or "suicide techniques".

Other senarios/searches might include "help overdose what to do", "child not breathing" etc. These may be input for a variety of reasons but it is not a stretch to imagine where parents/helpers/public could seek to solve emergencies through self help rather than contacting emergency services. Could there be a need for intervention from the state?

Neglecting the philosophical debate, how would such a system be designed? Is there a less intrusive more practical risk detection system that you can be built?
