1. A Compromise To Security
Street View

2. Techugo Updates
Many of us have raised eyebrows on rejection of Google Street View
The government has rejected due to security reasons
What these reasons are, let’s check with Techugo, your ultimate tech-partner.

3. Reason No 1
Mumbai terrorist attack in 2008, have involved photographic reconnaissance of
targets by Pakistani-American David Coleman Headley.
Authorities fear that Google Street View, would allow the users to view India in a
360-degree, panoramic view, would lead to have wrong impact over the Indian security
panel.

4. Reason No 2
Through this, terrorists can misuse the street views and plan terror attacks with accuracy.
Google Street View displays panoramas of stitched images, and the streets that are viewed
with Street View imagery are shown as blue lines on Google Maps.
Most photography is done by car, but some are done by trekker, tricycle, walking, boat,
snowmobile, camel, and underwater
apparatus.

5. Reason No 3
Unfortunately, the terror attack at the Pathankot airbase in January this year has raised the
security concerns.
As per the investigating agencies, terrorists used Google Maps as they were aware of the
airbase’s topography.

6. Reason No 4
The most horrifying fact: Indian defence installations, nuclear power plants and other “sen-
sitive” locations were visible on Google’s online map, which came under scanner of Delhi
High Court in January this year.

7. Reason No 5
The government has also expressed concern over a few social networking sites showing
Jammu and Kashmir and Arunachal Pradesh as part of Pakistan and China respectively.

8. A Bill To Regulate Privacy
This government has proposed the Geospatial Information Regulation Bill
Under this bill, a wrong depiction of India’s map could land the violators in jail with a maxi-
mum term of seven years and fine upto Rs 100 crore.
