Google should blur sensitive locations on Google Earth says Indian Government

December 15, 2008

Yes after a tragic terrorist attack in Mumbai, the legal advocates of India has demanded that the Google should blur the sensitive locations on Google Earth. According to them the Google Earth not only helped them to read the locations but also availing the access of photos of sensitive locations.

Not only India but also Australian officials asked Google to erase the Lucas Heights Nuclear Reactor from Google Earth in 2005. Recently USA Today informed to the Govt. that images of important areas is quite easily available on Google Earth and other mediums.

And it’s not just Google Earth. Earlier this year, the Pentagon banned Google StreetView cars from taking photos on U.S. military bases.

This is indeed a sensitive issue and Google should take a reasonable step to solve this issue asap.
