Google Earth has been blocked by countries such as Bahrain, where it's been used by critics of illegally-built palaces; and it's come under criticism in India, which feared enemy Pakistan would use the satellite maps to gather intelligence. We're hearing a rumor that the service, which overlays satellite imagery over a map grid, is actually forbidden in no fewer than 15 countries. Anyone have the list?
