New York, NY – Mayor Bloomberg Defends Google Images.

New York, NY – Mayor Bloomberg yesterday questioned an effort to compel Google Inc. to blur out satellite images [as we reported here] of sensitive city infrastructure in its computer program, Google Earth.

“It is a legitimate concern,” Mr. Bloomberg said. “However, given the number of satellites that can read your license plate from the sky, I think at this point that’s not necessarily where a terrorist would go.” [nysun]
