I was wondering if they were doing the Russians a favor by taking down the mapping for the Georgian's or if they were doing a favor to the Georgian's by taking it down so the Russians couldn't use it. Maybe they are claming neutrality and taking it down so no one can say that it was avaiable for use on line by either side.

I think that, were I a citizen of a country that relied on Google Maps for its military interventions, I would be very worried.
