I can understand why Google maps would blur out nuclear facilities and those sorts of places. But to delist an entire region from the map?

works for me with an F note:
The Waziristan region of Pakistan has seen sporadic fighting between pro-Taliban tribesmen and government troops.

Might have something to do with the Taliban and AQ threatening airstrikes on US bases in Afghanistan the other day. Maybe google is actually trying to help America for once....or maybe they got a court order to cease until further notice.

I found Google Maps missing or have different names on a few occasions.

Google rewrites news remember?
So, Google rewrites history.
Now, geography.

Jihadis can Google as well, and our G-2 discovered they were using online sources operationally in combat zones. The US would prefer they not be able to do that.

I tried Google Earth and it came up with Waziristan, Pakistan located in central Canda just west of the Hudson bay.
I am beginning to lose faith in Google and their intentions

Maybe you need to spell Pakistan correctly.

Yep...spelling Pakistan with an “h” isn’t going to help your search.

The incorrect spelling of Pakistan is given in the error message after searching for just Waziristan.

hmm... I’m not a conspiracy person either, but I’ve noticed some weird things in Google-land lately. Earlier last week, I was looking for a video of Barney Frank and Maxine Waters from 2004 promoting the security and soundness of Fannie/Freddie. When I went back to find it - it was gone - and all copies of it. On Friday, I was “bullied” by a YouTube video poster when I wrote in his comments that his hate-speech against Gov. Palin was wrong. He commented back and called me the same stuff. I reported him. My report of abuse was denied. So I started looking around... Something’s up here in this Google/YouTube land. I noticed the CEO Eric Schmidt was at the DNC and noticeably absent form the RNC. Found this video - it’s a little out there, but who knows..

A friend of mine in Buenos Aires was looking for his house on Google Earth the other day and, when he found it, also found a notice that he owed taxes and that his home was subject to auction.
Google and Big Brother, the gift that keeps on giving .. er .. taking.

Does Google Earth take any one else 20 minutes to open?
