Wasn't there any terror attack befor the availability of Google Earth???
Even if one bans it , terrorists will find another way.

You don't ban usage of knife from household , just because you can kill someone with it.

Ridiculous, Technology is always there, use it, misuse it, depends on your head (and also heart).

Gimme a break. There are more navagation devices and programs that provide a full view f the planet.Wikimapia falls in that list. These Hindi newspapers are just like AAj Tak, they just need a prick to print something.

Moral is that Terrorists are more technologically advanced than our forces :p
Atleast all their funds and hafta (read tax in case of government) goes to right place. Here it goes in making futile statues of historic figures, security of coward politicians and scams :/
