Google Earth

I hadn't used Google Earth since high school, and I have to say that I am quite impressed with the changes they have made since.  It was really cool how Google Earth flew over the globe to get the points that you wanted it to go!  There was so much detail, I couldn't believe it!  I could see my car in the driveway at home!  This kind of thing really makes me wonder who else is looking at our houses and why they are looking.  Maybe other kids are browsing to see their hometowns or places they want to visit, but what kind of advertisers or government entity is watching all the changes people make.  For example, could the City of Missoula look at my apartment and see that I have broken an ordinance and built a shed off the side of my garage?  Could this be evidence to give me a citation for breaking the city codes?  I know this may seem a little paranoid, but it is something that I feel we have to think about in order to be technologically responsible!
