Use Google Maps when committing a crime in Louisianna, get a year added to your sentence!

They passed a law that if you make a "virtual street map" onine before you commit a crime, you can get a year added to your prison term. If it's an act of terrorism, it can be 10 years.

Yep, that'll stop them terrorists cold!

...well, okay, using public data from criminal purposes, yeah, but you're right, it's not going to stop anybody.
