Yesterday, two versions of the same article concerning Google Earth satellite imagery of South Korea:
From The Korea Herald, an excerpt:
In September 2005, high-resolution pictures of Cheong Wa Dae, the Defense Ministry and air and naval bases were featured on the site. They were deleted following a protest by the Korean government. The National Intelligence Service has recently requested the U.S. authorities to take measures curb the posting of sensitive facilities on Google, according to Seoul officials.
From AsiaMedia, the same snippet:
In 2005, high-resolution pictures of Cheong Wa Dae, the Defense Ministry and air and naval bases were featured on the site. The National Intelligence Service has recently requested the U.S. authorities to take measures to curb the posting of sensitive facilities.
Last I looked, Cheong Wa Dae (the presidential palace) was still visible. Not sure what “US authorities” have to do with any of this, in any case.
