Mumbai killing rampage was planned by the terrorists using Google Earth. However, that planning can happen by their personal visits as well. That's how earlier terrorists had planned their attacks in 1992. An Indian court's plea to ban Google Earth from capturing Mumbai pictures is a knee-jerk reaction by folks who lack capacity to do good policy engineering.
IMHO, anything under the sun can be misused. For instance, the planes were used in case of 9/11 for bringing about destruction. This does not mean that planes must be banned.
I still support Google Earth.
