There seem to be lots of old google threads, so I thought I'd resurrect one
Has anyone else noted that the autocomplete on the google search box abruptly turns off if you're typing something you *shouldn't*?
E.g. you can get as far as 'files' and there are lots of suggestions (including, for me at least, one where the next letter is 't') but as soon as you enter a t (filest) it appears to panic that you're going to type filestube and there are no more autocomplete suggestions.
Would be nice to see the complete list of words that it doesn't autocomplete. I guess it's similar to that recent story about Siri on the new iPhone not being willing to direct users to abortion clinics. Google doesn't have that particular problem, but there must be some interesting elisions out there
