Why stop there? You can use Google Maps to find out how to reach your target. Ban it! You can use a a GPS receiver to accurately plot the location of a potential target and use it to fire a cruise missile at it. Ban that too! A tourist map has a lot of the same info as Google Maps. Burn 'em all and arrest the guys who printed it too! Ignoring the hyperbole above, the reality is that _everything_ can be used for negative purposes. We'd never innovate if we allow ourselves to be ruled by the present climate of fear. -- b
