> The games went to a Saudi sovereign wealth fund. The map went to defense. The map went to offense. Nobody needs scans of someone else's country for "defense". At this point it's a given that any data source that can bring an edge in a conflict is being used for exactly that. Things that film and scan surroundings are the newest addition. When a fleet of cars is taking cm or mm resolution scans of entire cities or even countries the safe assumption is that the data is funneled for intelligence and military purposes. | ||

Eh, the maps could be used for true domestic defense...but examples of foreign invasions on USA soil are scarce... | ||
