Call it the case of the missing White House. Users of Mapquest's free aerial photo database recently noticed that details of several Washington D.C. government buildings were no longer discernable in overhead images of the U.S. capital.

I think it's a good idea to obscure critical locations such as those discussed in the article. The Whitehouse is somewhat of a hard target to locate from the air. I think thats why the Pentagon got hit instead. Hopefully as time goes by the unobscured photos will drift away.
