"One result of the US government's battle with Google over a week's worth of searches is an increased awareness over the data kept by all of the major search engines. Each time we use Google, Yahoo, Ask Jeeves, or any other search engine, there's a record created of the search term used along with our IP address. All of the reputable search portals keep the data private. However, if someone armed with a subpoena wants to find out what you've been searching for, there is not a whole lot you can do to stop them."

If they need any evidence against you they'll just manufacture it. Not having access to the records just makes it a bit more difficult.
Can you prove you never searched/browsed there?
Keep sluggin' google!
