Is it safe to commit a crime in Dubai?

The military has that technology. It's for government use only - good luck ever finding a link to that. You can find information about it; I know it's out there - we are learning about (non top-secret, or course...) types of surveillance in class this semester. Trust me, they can see you. I promise. I'll try to dig up a link to some of the stuff, or I can try and scan/upload out of my class materials.

Satellite technology has nothing to do with deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan; the satellites aren't the ones fighting.

That picture was taken by a dude in a camera van, driving on the street. It was probably taken years ago and is no where near "surveillance"

My brother works for northrup grumman looking at data from missile detection satellites(with secret clearance). My friend polishes mirrors for raytheon... Enemy of the state isn't real... lol

If satellites could "look in your window" they would see civilians in the buildings they are bombing, not a military barracks, and hopefully not bomb that building(but that's obviously not the case). I don't want to argue politics, I'm just saying...

The military *might* be able to see your house, and *might* even be able to track a specific car. BUT the cost is so prohibitive they don't even bother. Not to mention, they couldn't track everyone(I doubt they could even do 1000 people simultaneously)...

Obviously the government has better things to do than see if you're reading the newspaper or looking at porn on your computer. That technology I would hope would only be used for a security/safety reason.
