  They don't want you to see what's here
This is Amsterdam on google maps, very close to Central Station. As you can see, something on Google's satellite imagery is blurred out by hand, and not very delicately either I must say.

Question is: what is so important that made someone decide that we are not allowed to see what is there? Especially considering the fact that detailed imagary is available of such futile little buildings such as...oooh let's say: the damn White House!


Or The Pentagon(!):

These are easy to find and extremely detailed. The image of the pentagon can even be zoomed in to the point where you can tell what kind of cars are parked in the inside parking lot.

The only thing that I could find that's most likely on that location in Amsterdam is this ugly piece of shit of a building, called the Post CS building, which functions as a temporary place for the Stedelijk Museum.


So maybe it's not as mysterious as one might think after all: someone just doesn't want to see ugly buildings on google maps.

"Atheism is more than just the knowledge that Gods does not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature" - Carl Sagan
