it was a teeny tiny example of possible misuse of information if your teeny tiny mind can't see that then the issue is too big for you to comprehend

I'm happy to hear that Google will be providing better quality pictures for all the viewers like me that are interested in space Technology.

you think the US govt is letting anyone with enough money to buy a rocket send up satellites into space?Thats a very naive world view. Google has been in the back pockets of govts for years. They gladly censor for the chinese govt as well.

I'm not sure how the added resolution will benefit Google. Will it really make a difference?
