Google has opened free access to high-resolution satellite images of Russian military installations

11

Google Maps has provided free access to satellite images of Russian military installations. Now visual information about the military infrastructure of the Russian Federation may fall into the hands of the Ukrainian armed forces.

In the past, the Americans have given access to such high-quality images of Russian installations in Syria, which allowed Washington to avoid responsibility for the direct transfer of classified data to terrorists.



On the one hand, Google makes it possible to distribute images that should not be available to the public. On the other hand, the YouTube video hosting service owned by this company blocks the channels of Russian state media, which include branches of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company: Krasnodar, Stavropol, Bashkortostan, Kuzbass, Novosibirsk and Vainakh in Chechnya.

Roskomnadzor demanded that the Western company stop the vicious practice of blocking the channels of state-owned Russian mass media. Such actions violate the principles of free dissemination of information and access to it.

Earlier, the head of the Human Rights Council, Valery Fadeev, said that for numerous fakes about the special operation, there is a desire to block YouTube in the Russian Federation, but in this case, the Russian side will lose the opportunity to convey its point of view to a wide audience.

I want to block YouTube, but how then to promote my understanding, my interpretation, my truth? I don't have a clear answer here.

Fadeev said in an interview RIA News.

      After all, we can take similar steps in all corners of the world where there are US bases and there are armed conflicts.

      In my humble opinion, this is similar to the supply of weapons to Ukraine.
      So it is necessary to shoot down these satellites as well as the supplied equipment.

      It is foolish to reproach a prostitute for the fact that she gives everyone in a row without holidays and weekends.
      She cannot do otherwise.
      Who's to say that Google isn't a prostitute?

      Yeah ... And then, as if until now this information, and even more accurate from special satellites, has not been transmitted by the United States to the Nazis' coming out ..

      well, in fact, the pictures were a secret only for civilians, the military had other sources of information. and they have seen all this for a long time and in much better resolution. and the pictures themselves make sense when they are geo-referenced. But these are completely different technologies. you can shift the grid of the navigation system by some distance of error, and if you want to bomb the object on this map, you yourself understand where the missiles will fly. and for terrorists they are even more useless - they do not have and cannot have any fire control systems. Well, they showed Google these maps, showed who they are. well, fu on them. We will develop our own store, services, and you can refuse it altogether on the territory of Russia. China has not suffered without it for a long time. I would gladly turn it off and it's a pity to root the phone - the guarantee has not ended yet. we have our own cards, 2 gis to strain so that they make layers will even be an alternative.

      Our satellites with laser guns are in orbit - it's time to act not on the sly, but openly and brazenly.
