I suppose we all know what Google Earth is, but if you don't, it is a website that uses satellites, and you can look at anything on earth that the satellite can see. It is not a live feed. You can see your house or cars or people. I was have been thinking about this for awhile. This is a free resource on the free Internet. Anyone is allowed to use this, although you can pay for a better quality version. If such an expansive resource is available to the public, then what does the government have control of? What are they able to see? Just seeing my backyard on the World Wide Web is mind blowing, but I am sure that that is now calculator technology compared with what the government is using.
