| The Mumbai, India, police have launched their previously announced plan to 
| secure Wi-Fi networks. A team of police is using a battery of devices to

| last year's attacks, where terrorists used the Internet and other 
| communications networks.

Indian Court Wants To Ban Google Earth In The Wake Of Mumbai Attacks

,----[ Quote ]
| However, an Indian Court is now calling for the software to be banned saying
| that it "aids terrorists." Of course, so do maps or photographs of hotels,
| such as those placed online by the hotels themselves, but people aren't
| overreacting and calling for a ban of those things as well. Yes, we can
| understand the kneejerk reaction here, and the anger over these horrific
| attacks. But, banning Google Earth isn't the answer.
