Google Earth gets warm

Sunday, October 28th, 2007 | Internet with

Even after its active support to provide high resolutions pictures during the recent Forest Fire raging in California, Google Earth is being questioned based on risk factors associated with satellite imaging.

The Times of India reported that Palestine militants in the Gaza Strip are using Google Earth for planning rocket attacks in Israel. Obviously a terrifying news, though Google has defended Google Earth saying that this is not the only source of world map online.

But the news can really sound horrifying once another related story comes under light. Google Earth has been showing Arunachal Pradesh as a part of China not India. The question is if militants plan for attacks based on such incorrect territorial lines, then the missile headed to C can devastate I anytime!

However, once The Telegraph reported the error, Google accepted it and promised a correction.
