In fact, the Keyhole satellites those agencies used were state-of-the-art at one time. And "Google" is a much less scary name than "NSA Surveillance Tool," though there's little practical difference between the two in terms of the amount of data they scoop up on each of us. Of course, only one requires a court order (at least theoretically) to use it against you.

Says a lot I had to wonder which required the court order and then remembered since I’m not a US citizen it’s a moot point.

Dont bite the hand that feeds you, aka lets not forget who funded Google in the first place.
