Google Earth: hackers rename Armenian Genocide Memorial into "Talaat Pasha monument"

27 November 2008 [17:48] - TODAY.AZ
Hackers renamed Armenian Genocide Memorial into "Talaat Pasha monument" in the Google Earth project, independent French journalist Jean Eckian told PanARMENIAN.Net.
This profanation was signed as Haluk Dolmayan, what is, actually, a modified name of Director of Armenian Genocide Institute-Museum, Hayk Demoyan, and is dated March 12, 2008.

The photo was added in the database of Panoramio, a partner of Google, whose photos can be seen in Google.

"The question is to know how such provocation became possible, who is author and whether it could be a member of Google Earth or Panoramio staff?" Jean Eckian says.
