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 les
s.
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 repor
ted by the south korean government, a good ally of the west, concerning north korea's ability t
o use google earth to spy on its miliary compounds and put at risk the thousand of US troops sa
tioned 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 "c
lassified" written on it will show it presence.

If google is going to set this up they got to make some places of limits or just not have th pr
ogram at all.

Google earth is a great program though despite its short falls. In one case in the UK last week
a guy was looking at his house using google earth and found the remains of a roman town. Arche
ologists confirmed that the ring of dirt surrounding his neighbourhood seen on google earth wer
e the foundations.
