My friend on Google street view

I was tracing my route to work on street view, doesn’t everyone? I came across someone I know, and to boot their face had not been blurred out.

I have yet to speak to them and ask them whether they can remember the encounter with the strange car.

Google street view

There has been a lot of fuss over street view in Germany where there are all sort of worries over privacy. For example Google agreed that they would also blur buildings if the people living there requested it. Trouble is with some apartments there were people who asked for the building to be blurred but them other people who lived there then complained that they did not want it blurred.

Google has also had to, in some countries, publish the time and places that the car will be going to an area. If only they did that here in the UK, we could all go out there and stage funny/peculiar things for the car to photo!
