U.S. To Require Visas for Foreign Google Map Users

When Lien Meng, an office worker in Taiwan, hopped onto her computer during her lunch break, stuffing her face with beef noodle soup while virtually traveling through the streets of Beverly Hills, down Benedict Canyon Drive, to look at Justin Bieber's new house on Google Maps, she had no idea she was breaking U.S. federal law.

Before she could take her last noisy slurp of the unctuous broth, US federal agents had broken down her office door, pistol whipped her computer monitor, and placed her under arrest for violated US immigration law.

"What is happening?" Shien exclaimed, as agents took her away, "Is it illegal to love Justin Bieber with all your heart?"

Little did Meng know that two days before her arrest, the U.S. Congress passed a controversial new immigration law, requiring foreign users of Google Maps to acquire visas before virtually crossing the virtual borders of the virtual United States.

"Virtual America is now only for the enjoyment of legal residents and citizens," explained Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, "No longer can foreigners use Google Maps to stealthily enter America, ogling at Mt. Rushmore late at night on their computers while their roommate is out. It is tawdry, inappropriate, and now, illegal."
