Google Street View is Creepy
Who's watching you? More people than ever before.
(shamelessly stolen from candid)
update: Here is a "top 15 list" of the best Google street view images.
i could see how this would be of particular concern to you.
:D
In the 90's, sure. But what's the point these days? The internet is faster and cheaper. Like yo momma.

CIA
NSA
FBI
NRO
Google
I don't think they need to be in cahoots with the government to raise privacy concerns. Maybe I'm missing your point?
Posted by: Joe Grossberg on June 4, 2007 7:26 PM | permalinkGoogle Street View is generally creepy, but cool at the same time. In addition to what you posted, on other sites there are pictures of girls sunbathing, a girl getting into her car with her thong showing, a dude urinating on the side of the highway, etc. I presume eventually DC will get the Google Street View treatment? Guess I better be careful when I'm outside not to pick my nose or anything.

"...a dude urinating on the side of the highway"
If you want to see dudes urinating in public, I highly recommend the Shady Grove metro station in Rockville. Sometimes they try to conceal it behind a bush.
