Google Maps “removes” photos of Austria's most popular landmark; here's what the company said about the removal

Google has removed dozens of photos of Austrian landmarks added by Austrian environmental activists. Photos of Alpine lakes and other Austrian landmarks on Google Maps claim to reflect the potential effects of climate change, and these AI-altered images show a dried-up Danube and Austrian lakes, as well as snow-free Alpine peaks, as if they were taken in 2070. The photos were reportedly posted on Google Maps by the Letzte Generation (Last Generation) group. Google's announcement about the photo removal Google removed the photos on Saturday (June 22). “Our policies clearly prohibit content that is not based on real experiences or does not accurately represent a place. We remove photos that violate our policies in question,” a Google spokesperson told news agency AFP. Google's policy on user-added photos states: “Posts and edits should be based on real experiences and information. Knowingly fake content, copied or plagiarized photos, off-topic reviews, derogatory language, personal attacks, unnecessary or inaccurate content are all violations of our policies. Furthermore, we will usually remove entire posts (such as posting a photo with a text review attached) even if there are parts that are in violation. For more information on what is and isn't allowed, see “Prohibited and Restricted Content”. If you come across subjective content such as reviews, questions or answers about media or places, or profiles that you believe violate our policies or the law, please see our “Report and fix inappropriate content” and “Report inappropriate user profiles” policies for how to address them,” Google said on its user-generated content policy page. In response to Google's removal of the photo, Let's Generation told AFO that it was “not that surprised” by Google's actions. “Like authorities and big companies in general, they are ignoring the climate catastrophe,” the group's spokesperson Marina Hagen Canavall said. The group claimed it had previously posted the photos on Google Maps to warn tourists who use the service to plan their holidays of the risks of rising temperatures due to climate change.Let's Generation has vowed to take further action, including on the internet.
