...and I am glad that I am not the only one who is disturbed by their new street level view feature! Doesn't it bother you that if someone inputs your address they could potentially see your front door, your car or YOU. Yikes. I am sorry, I really think they have crossed the line and I am a bit disturbed by the invasiveness of this feature.
Take a look at the
article from CNET.
Who cares if it legal. How about letting people enjoy the little bit of privacy lthey have left in society? The Internet is like a double edged sword. On one hand, we have access to a wealth of knowledge and information in the matter of seconds, but at the same time, our personal information is at risk.
I honestly think tools like this might encourage crime. Seriously think about it. Take a seedy individual with nothing to lose and all they need is a lil push. Well here you go lol. You pick a location and you are able to see doors, windows, fences, etc. Is this really far fetched? I don't think so...
