well of course that depends on lots of things.
I wouldn't think that asking a generic question would lead to any particular suspician unless you were asking about a specific bank being robbed on a specific day and further, I would think you might already need to be a suspect to attract that sort of attention to yourself.
Actually I think its more about what the government. or law enforcement feels like being paranoid about.
Just because you do a search on something and it could be anything. Inand of itself shouldnt make you a suspect. Even if not generic.
I may have an interest in bank roberies and the details how they are carried out merely as a subject I find interesting.
That doesnt make me a bank robber or anymore a bankrobber then someone who hasnt run a search on it.
Now bank robberies dont particularly interest me
but I have done searches on and read things based on nothing more then a passing interest such as "The Anarchists Cookbook " (in fact I juust did again to make sure I had the title right)
As have alot of other people I know.
And neither I. nor any of the people I know are any threat to carry out anything we've read in it. In fact I think it would probably be safe to say that the overwhelmingly large majority of people who either have it. or have ready it are no threat whatsoever to actually do the things listed in it.
Just because you may have an interest in soemthing or done a search on it should not be a determining factor inand of itself as to if you are a suspect in any given activity.
