How long before the first "Google Street View" divorce?!?!!

[morningpaper]

Google now has street view

This is amazing! So much detail - wow!

They are supposed to have blocked out number plates but you can read around 1 in 3 very clearly on my mother-in-law's street. I'm sure it won't be long before someone finds the wrong car outside the wrong house....!

You can see in peoples windows

I cannot believe this has been done, I am so far beyond shocked, who very dare they walk down my street snapping picks

I know I cannot do anything, but i think I may well stop opening my curtains from now on

It's WEIRD isn't it?

YES it is MP [still shocked emoticon]

they don't walk kingcanute. it's a car with a tall futuristic looking thing stuck on top.
very modern

I'm torn between feeling that it's an infringement of privacy, and the Hilda-Ogden curtain-twitching side of me that wishes her town was on there to be nosey...

Nice. You can see right into my kitchen and sitting room as the camera is higher than eye level so looks over the curtain. Twats.

Will I am very very unhappy about the infringment of my privacy - but I have just noticed that you can see the laundry hung in exs window - it looks ver ver chav. Every cloud and all that

JackBauer I would be very unhappy about that.
I am cross enough about being on it myself, albeit blurred out.

Can you contact them and ask to have it blurred? I'm sure they did this in some cases when the US one was released.

I am torn between it being what anyone could see (mostly) if they walked down our street and the feeling that anyone in the whole world can see this without even taking the effort to walk down my street. Sorry but it creeps me out!

Own up, how many are going to check out the perfect PTA mums house for a good nosey - imagine how something like that could be abused or misused... It just feels wrong to me!

What towns is it available for? Every one I look at it says "streetview unavailable"

i told my MIL that she was on google earth in her garden and asked her when she became a naturist.

tee hee.

Although it's quite good fun nosing round.
I am just searching a junction near my house though as they cut me up when they were trawling round and I may have made a rude sign at them....

It apparently coves Birmingham, but every street I have looked at says there is no pic available.

Nutty- I'm in B ham, though South.

How bizzare - they only got 1/3 of the way up my short side road.

Meant to say, weirdly, because of the time lapse, my car is at a junction, and then parked as well!

I'm pleased to see that they visited DSs school in the summer holidays.

I can't get on. Could someone please post me a direct link.
I just want to see what its like I don't think its a good idea if they can see into people houses

oh my god. I've just looked at my dad's house and my friend's.

And there was a window cleaner on one house nearby. Wonder if he's still there.

Quite glad my street will NEVER be on it...

OOh, DD and I have just had a nosy at Granny's house.

She was most disappointed that Granny was not in the garden.

I can understand anyone being annoyed, it is very detailed.

It covers a fair bit of Dundee.

Not that I have been nosying around or anything.

I can see loads of numberplates!

Leicester is noy one of the places!
