We Can See Your Weed From Space

sateliteweedAn amusing story from Yahoo! Tech:  police in Zurich, Switzerland have arrested 16 people and seized 1.2 tons of marijuana.

Probable cause?  Perhaps the giant marijuana fields that they saw on Google Earth.

I’m not a lawyer, but I suspect that it would be a good idea to instruct clients not to conduct any illegal activities clearly visible from space.
