electrical power lines are "critical infrastructure" status in most countries; fifteen percent of countries worldwide do not publish official maps at all.. every country has protected information and publishing restrictions related to self-defense.
- acdanger 5y agoAre you saying publishing a map of power related infrastructure would be illegal in some countries?

- blunte 5y agoThe point was that this article had useless links in the article which were not pertinent to the specific topic, and it mentioned a map from a study, but it did not show or link to the map (or the study!). Other commenters replied to me and linked to the study, which does have a low-res but useful map. That is all I wanted, and it should have been linked in the original article.
