In 1999 I was "interviewed" for 40 minutes by airport security personnel in Israel for having in my hand luggage
1) an Israeli road atlas, and
2) Tel-Aviv city map.

Both items were purchased in normal fashion in a bookstore at a mall. Their presence with a foreigner, however, was apparently suspicious.

So foreigners are supposed to just "know" their way around, while the natives are permitted to look at maps? Urk.

Somehow the fact that my own government isn't the only one that thinks this way does not reassure me.
