Erm, but the Google Trends chart Pink News has published suggests there have been 100 searches for 'gay sex pics' from Kenya in the last ten years - hardly 'extraordinarily high' - and just nine from the US.
The numbers on the graph reflect how many searches have been done for a particular term, relative to the total number of searches done on Google over time. They don't represent absolute search volume numbers, because the data is normalized and presented on a scale from 0-100. Each point on the graph is divided by the highest point, or 100. When we don't have enough data, 0 is shown... apparently!
Fagburn is a Richard Smith production. Now widely acknowledged as Britain's leading homosexual libertarian communist absurdist thinker, Fagburn is for a ruthless gay criticism of everything existing. He has been banging his head against a brick wall since April 2010, and is spokesbot for the totally made-up Gay Media Watch. Always grateful for tip-offs about stuff. Contact fagburn (@) safetycat.org. or @fagburn. Legal bit and small print. Follow me on Twitter @fagburn. Or don't. I'm not that fussed, really. Fagburn was nominated for Publication Of The Year in the 2013 Stonewall Awards - so NERR! He is currently not writing a book.
