I just cant see them having live cams of greater metro areas...perhaps a few choice positions in a few CBD's around the world, but sure as hell not XYZ street in Bentley/Wanneroo/Byford etc. |

Bloke passed out seems to be gone but there is a girl sitting on the corner of that street who looks like she is eating a sandwich.

Slashdot has an article that expresses my views very eloquently. I urge you all to read it and see if your opinions have changed.
Slashdot | Google's Streetview Seen As Culturally Insensitive In Japan
Some highlights of the quotes on the first page.
Quote:
|
"Having lived here (Japan) for ten years, most recently in an older residential area, I can attest to its accuracy — Living in such close proximity to your neighbors, it becomes necessary to 'not look' at everything that you might be able see from a place such as the street, where you may have a legal right to be."
|
Quote:
"What this really reminds us of is that meatspace is fundamentally different from cyberspace. On the net, we've evolved the ROBOTS.TXT for just this problem, and everybody agrees that websites aren't private by default, unless the owners explicitly say so. Google is a net company, and views the world as if it was an extension of the internet.
But the real world is not like the net, and in the real world the ROBOTS.TXT convention is inverted: the onus is not on the people to inform Google which data is out of bounds, instead the onus is on Google to ask every possible person which data is public. As a result, Google's company culture is fundamentally ill suited for meatspace information gathering."

I dont see why it should be up to Google to ask if they can publish this sort of thing. The reality is that everything that Google Streetview provides has been available for the past 10 years +++ anyway. The problem is that people have absolutely no idea how much info is public knowledge. People have this completely misguided view of their privacy. The ONLY thing Google has done is make the data even more accessable. |

If you do not want your property on display to the world you can contact google and have it blacked out. One of the guys at work just had this done.
