To be fair, if you're stupid enough to Google how to conduct criminal activity then carry out those actions, you deserve to be caught. It's akin to doing a burnout in front of police.
That being said, I guess you could say I'm biased because I have personally made similar requests to Google to determine the identity of people, for the purposes of assisting in the investigation of serious/major crimes.
