There are two separate issues, only one of which seems to be addressed:

1. Satellite imagery is not new and the precise intent is to collect images of "denied areas".
2. Just because satellite imagery can be collected, it may or may not be distributable.

yes, it is a bore.

The family name is "Boring."

So boring.

So boring.

+1 and YES professional victims.
NOW, if someone sues because they're NOT on google maps THAT might be interesting, or at least less boring.
