"A lawyer for the Justice Department told Ware that the government would like to have a random selection of 50,000 Web addresses and 5,000 random search requests from Google, a small fraction of the millions the government originally sought."

I don't get it. Can't the government do their own searches for porn, the way the rest of us do?

That would be the cheap and easy way out.  Look who you're talking about here...the same organization that justifies $130 hammers and $965 toilet seats.
