it cant be THAT abusable, if it was that dangerous then the government would have already stepped in and shut it down
besides, the government is about to start paying google lots of money to start mapping space. i was reading an article about this NASA project they are doing where they are taking very high res pictures from a satellite and writing them onto a monster server. their current issue is figuring out where to put all of this stuff
data output - 6 GIGS EVERY SECOND
should be interesting to see what they come up with |

| they have the technology to use the telescope, but to map the whole sky every 3 days is going to be quite the project, thats why they're paying google to do it, it goes on a rotation where it completes the cycle once every 3 days |
