I love my friend to pieces, he is a lovely lovely chap - why would he type this in? There were no videos or anything downloaded or any images saved - just anxious why he would randomly type that search. Please help. He is 33. Reply to this Question Share |

Google did not suggest "preteen" to me - I just checked and as I predicted, it would not.
It's a problem. He shouldn't be indulging is curiosity but a lot of otherwise nice people do have the problem (and if they are truly nice and decent they suppress it or at least don't act on it). Keep in mind that it doesn't mean that he has or would molest a young person. Although by consuming child porn yes you participate in the molestation and exploitation.
In sum, I would say it's likely a red flag to me. But I have no idea what you could do about it. Anyone?

If 'preteen' was put into any normal search engine, kiddy-porn would not be the outcome. Anybody with a brain can tell you searching for illegal things this way yeilds no results.
Keep in mind, please, Google now inputs terms FOR you, ones which are popular, but not necessarily ones which have been inputted at that computer at all.
