I just read in the paper that google earth is now under serious investigation accross the globe by both governments and private sectors.
They are worried about the detailed images google earth provides of military bases, nuclear power stations, police compounds, the list is end less.
Alot of people a worried that terrorists and America's enemies can now get detailed maps of their military and civilian targets and make better plans of attack. One such fear was reported by the south korean government, a good ally of the west, concerning north korea's ability to use google earth to spy on its miliary compounds and put at risk the thousand of US troops sationed there including its on army and population.
So are google going to have tp pull this one or sensor it? They'd effectively need to camofladge the bases as a big white square with "classified" written on it will show it presence.
