It took some time after 9/11, but the sourtce images were altered to obstruct views of facilities that might become targets of people wishing to do them harm. Those sites include, but are not limited to the White House, the Naval Observatory (Vice Presidential residence), ALL of the Congressional office buildings, and key strategic military institutions – that does not mean military bases, but those bases which are handling sensitive material, or are particularly threatened. One example would be St. Ignoe’s in Southern Maryland – once a radar research facility and auxillary airfield for the Navy, and nowa testing site for new RPV’s.

Blurring out sattelite – and hi-res aerial photo’s (hi-res are usually older, B&W, and taken from an aircraft), has been done for years. But, after the press started pointing out that the images were available to everyone, the agency who controls those images, the Geological Survey, quickly blurred out those sites.

Seems like this is the only one they’ve found in Russia – so far…

Which means it could still be your wallet Tim) Why would Putin leave it in the Far East -its more your area than his)

It’s possible an intelligence agency is worried about something at this site, so they asked the imaging companies to blur it out. I mean, that can go both directions, right?

I’m sure that his take-home pay taking into account all sources is considerably higher than this. Hence he needs to leave his wallet hidden in the far east until his term is up.
