Google Maps obscures White House satellite images

Probably documented in other contexts elsewhere, but...

Google's satellite mapping feauture launched yesterday. The images of the White House and the US Capitol are digitally obscured. (Unless the White House just has a very smooth, clean roof...)

To reproduce, just map the address of the WH.

I imagine this is standard practice among commercial satellite companies these days, but I just thought someone should note it. [tx B.]
