They are watching you from space!

I don't wanna fuel anyone's already over-active paranoia about conspiracy theories, but I was playing with Google Earth Plus today and found the updated version now offers photographs like this one showing individual people. And it's from space!


And this is only the free 'el cheapo' version of the software. Just imagine what you'll get if dollars are involved. Or if you are a government agency with mega bucks to spend. A clarity that'd let you count the freckles on a face. In real time and with movement. This is not the future guys - this must be now. Privacy is a myth that we don't realize is as extinct as the dinosaurs. I guess 2007 is after '1984'!
