Google contractors sacked after vandalizing OpenStreetMap
"Not working on Google projects anymore" doesn't imply the same thing as "sacked" where I come from.<p>I think people want a better explanation then what we've seen so far.  Vandalizing wikipedia for teh lawlz is one thing, vandalizing OSM with potentially dangerous things like switching one way streets is another kettle of fish.  Especially when your employer (err employer's employer) runs a well known competitor.
