Original Message
I once read from someone who claimed to be "in the know" that the government censors or does not permit satellite imagery (beyond a very low resolution) above a certain parallel, both north and south. If I remember correctly, the parallel numer was something like 70th or 80th. (I think I read this info here, or on a similar site).
Has anyone here heard or read something similar about a secret ban on north pole/south pole satellite photos? I think I remember this source stating that in the arctic/antarctic treaties there was some stipulation about this.
Anyway, I have not had much luck when I've tried to find out more about this, hoping someone here might know something.
