If you look at the debate looks to Google's Street View once you get the impression that after the fall of the " Valley of the Clueless " resolved not, but simply extended to the entire country had ... The assumption Google wants to publish what appears to be somewhere in the range of real-time video from anywhere in the world, including one's own front yard with a combination of all someone somewhere only collected data including at least giving all the homes (of course searchable) and probably move even their income or medical data. If this were true, I would understand all the protests, even! And that completely! And I would support them!
There's just one problem: This idea is complete nonsense!
what Google shows us here, and how the example of various cities and towns in several countries already, is something else entirely. Rather, it is simply about from the roof taken round eyes, that camera positions at a distance of approximately 10m in most areas, but may also have a lot more. In these photos can be hardly Road signs read (not least because the automatic pixelation anyway responds to all possible structures). Specifically, I have a model just a recording on the north side of the Cathedral of Utrecht (who wants to know: Corner Domstraat / Voetiusstraat). The picture has not quite fill the screen resolution (if it is not even stretched it already, because it is in further enlargement very quickly pixelated) and similarly low, as would a 2MPix phone photo from this perspective - if not less, particularly Unfortunately, the upper part of the tower shown very blurred. The pixelation incidentally caught not only faces and features, but suggests here and there also times when traffic signs, car rims and other similar parts to.
short: Who wants to ban Google Street View, it has not seen either or apparently had intended to prohibit general outdoor photos. Or he just wants to stir up with a senseless panic any fear ...
