Don't know,...on a public road, "people" can see you and that's OK...and now "things" can see you too....it's public domain after all...

Chrome_Orange · 12-20-2007, 07:35 PM

but there are plenty of sightings of people sunbathing etc in gardens

It's creating a huge stink in TX as just after the appraisal districts* finished up with putting elevations and floorplans online, our legistlature enacted a law requiring them to take it down.

A few months later and google effectively has the elevations up with street view.

*responsible for evaluating TX real eastate's value for tax purposes since

doma · 12-23-2007, 01:38 PM

this post got me playing with the street view feature of google maps.

So I placed the street view icon on charelston ave in mountain view (at google headquaters) and what do I see? I bunch of google employees standing on the side of the road in green shirts with a yellow van printed on them. THey are all cheering at the van and holding shovels (? maybe that was the ground breaking run?). Way cool!
