If you were to look at a Google map of Pakistan and find the town of Kalyal Sharief, which is south east of Islambad, you will discover the Android bot peeing on an Apple logo. The 'relief de résistance' is only visable in map mode.
Mashable contacted Google for an explanation and this what they were told - the image is likely a result of a user abusing Map Maker, the tool that allows everyone to contribute to Google Maps. "Even though edits are moderated, occasionally the odd inaccurate or cheeky edit may slip through our system," he said in the statement to Mashable. "We've been made aware of the issue and are working on getting it removed." Well that is a relief!
