Google Maps Compromise Privacy
Posted on August 13th, 2007 No commentsGoogle started expanding its Google Maps program across Southern California, and anyone who got in the way of the camera lens became subjects in the online map views.
The additions in the Google Maps program include cities such as Los Angeles, San Diego and some Orange County cities, as well as Houston and Orlando. While some bloggers, teens and Internet technology enthusiasts were excited about the advancement in the tracking technology, some who were actually caught on camera became uneasy with the invasion of their privacy.
I myself was even caught leaving my office building at lunchtime one afternoon! What is your opinion on this detailed tracking? Should Google have the right to show people in such detail that you can identify exactly who they are, where they are and what they are doing?

I don’t really think it is a big deal.
If you are in a public place you can be photographed at any given time without giving your permission. On a daily basis you might be in the background of peoples’ pictures or even news casts.
If you don’t want anyone to know what you are doing in public, then maybe you shouldn’t be doing it in the first place. Just a thought.
