How secure is data when uploaded to Google Earth?
Post Body

My company is trying to move away from Google Earth because they think any data we upload on there isn't very secure. Mainly that other companies can buy GE metadata and that could potentially impact us. Does anyone have any input on how secure any data we put on there actually is?

We use ArcMap for us GIS folks in the office, but for field guys and such it's just easier for them to draw stuff in Google Earth instead of having them to get used to Arc Explorer or ArcGIS Online both of which aren't nearly as easy to use as Google Earth.
