Over 17 years ago I released an app to the Android market that readily exposed public file servers using Google's embedded syntax. I enjoyed the experience but maintaining the app over the years of fractured Android SDK versions had me put it on the back burner.
Today, T.N. Development Team re-released a raw, fully public and open-source version of GoogHacks to the web!

There's nothing inherently special about it if you're already intimately familiar with "Google Dorking" but most aren't and most don't use it to its full potential. It's an incredibly powerful research tool and while I'm the first to admit that this tool is NOT safe for public consumption (viruses and legal-gray-area content abound) but being the "chaotic neutral" engineer that I am, the educational pursuit is constant and necessary!
Simply using the app will not harm your system but if you intend to hunt down copyrighted or nefarious content - you WILL find it. SO, if this is your first foray into dorking - please USE WITH CAUTION; you could potentially expose yourself and/or your systems to infringement issues or worse...
Feel free to let me know how it goes for you - I'm both excited and terrified for the feedback. Enjoy!
