I have actually thought about this with other countries. The problem is that google earth doesn't really update often enough to really make a difference. If its on the map at all, blurred or not, others will know that there is something important there. It really is a privacy verses freedom issue. Do they have the right to allow viewing of sensitive areas or should they be made to hide them? Its easy to say they have the right since its not our countries secrets being made visible to the world via satellite pictures.
It seems Google will probably be sued many times by cheating husbands and wives that are being caught in Google!
