The document became available as a result of an April Freedom of Information Act request by MuckRock, a service-provider for journalists and researchers. : An Introduction to Internet Research）的手册一共643页，由罗宾·温德和查理·斯佩特两人合著，2007年由美国国家安全局数字内容中心（he NSA's Center for Digital Content）出版，内容从网络调查的基础知识到如何查找意外流入公共领域的保密信息，无所不包。今年4月，面向媒体从业人员和研究人员提供服务的MuckRock根据美国《自由信息法案》申请信息公开，这份手册也因此重见天日。 At George R.

The introduction alone is filled with references to 10th-century Persia, Jorge Luis Borges, Sigmund Freud, and the Minotaur in the Labyrinth. As Wired pointed out, the chapter titled "Google Hacking" is getting the most immediate play. (Showing the document's age, perhaps, there are also sections on Yahoo Search, Windows Live Search, and Ask.com.)
