It's probably referring to how you can "lie" with maps.

It means you can misrepresent things with maps.

People assume that maps are an authority source, but really maps are made by humans and sometimes those humans have agendas, and the maps only show selective information.

Hi. Using a map to establish property boundaries may be an example.

probably referring to plagarism.

Most maps are under copyright and duplication of the map, or any portion thereof, may be map misuse.
