BTW I know it has been useful in this and that and YES, even I enjoyed going through with it for an hour or two.. but really, cmon, for India it isn't about learning where the restaurants are at.. it's more of a security risk than ever. Blurring sensitive sites only makes other curious about what exactly is the government trying to hide?
Either way, government should keep checking GE and pressure Google into completely blocking out various locations instead of minor blur since complete ban is out of question (apparently) and tbh even I think it will be extreme and won't win them any favors.
