GOOGLE BOSS SAYS: 'IF YOU DON'T LIKE GOOGLE STREETVIEW, THEN MOVE HOUSE'
Residents concerned about the public nature of Google Street View images might want to consider moving house. This is the latest suggestion to come from loose-lipped Google boss, Eric Schmidt.

In August he also suggested teens could change their names when they reached adulthood to avoid earlier indiscretions, and his latest comments come just as the company is seeking to reassure the public that it takes the matter of personal privacy very seriously.

In an interview with CNN, Schmidt spoke of the public reaction to the camera-mounted vehicles which photograph houses around the world. “Street View, we drive exactly once . . . So, you can just move, right?”

Google sniffed the shit out of american networks back when they drove around.

I knew they were on the way, so I politely shutdown my internet devices ahead of them coming.

If your routers were on, they got your IP/MAC/SSID/channel/untelling whatever else.

Screw you google

It's not illegal to take a picture of a house. Besides, most of you don't even truly own your houses anyway.

It isn't the house picture that is the problem, it is posting it on the internet for all to see that brings legal ramifications.

Would you like me to post some pictures of your children on 4chan or here? Get my point?

There should be an assumed amount of privacy.

Also, nevermind the picture, how about the INTRUSIVE and self-admittedly ILLEGAL network scanning/sniffing/logging/who knows what else that they ADMIT they did?


I'll tell you this about them.

THEY USE WINDOWS.

They are not doing anything illegal, by taking a video of your house. They are shooting from the street, which is public property.
Hope they never make it illegal, else no one will be able to take any videos anywhere.

No it's not. But just recently in England, a man found naked photos of his young sons playing at his home on Streetview.

You'd probably react the the same way about it, they were your young sons.

I don't think there are any legal ramifications either. If it's a public street (which the street views are as far as I know), anyone can drive down it and take a picture and post it anywhere they want. You don't own privacy over the "sight" of your house. If you don't want someone seeing it, put up a wall, or big trees, or bushes, or whatever...

Now, birds eye view into your private back yard is another thing altogether!! And their sniffing of emails/passwords etc over wifi is definitely wrong, although people shouldn't be so dumb as to not encrypt....

The way the law is nowadays, breaking/intruding into my private network is no different than physically breaking into my house.

The picture, I don't have so much of a problem with, because like you said, anyone who drives there can see it, free country, etc..

Now, the network issue is the real problem.
Who the fuck is google that they need to sniff/record every network in the world?
Who gave them the legal right?
Who allows them to do this with no punishment?

Why is there not a major lawsuit like there was in Germany?

Best thing any of you can do, is block google at router level, google.com, analytics, the whole shebang.

Fuck them, they have no consideration, only motivation for profits.

We all know how it turns out when profiteers are in the driver seat.

Images of public places are free for all to take. Its pretty essential to freedom of the press. If you don't like what can be seen from the street then change it. Its a free country, and anyone is free to take photos from the public street.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1020876


They use the wi-fi access points to enhance the accuracy of the geo-location on Android phones. By plotting the GPS co-ords of known access points it makes it possible for an Android phone user to fix their position on a Google map even with the GPS turned off since the phone can detect a list of the wifi-networks in the area and cross-reference them with the database to fix a position.

There is nothing wrong with that if you ask me, and it only works if your access point is set to broadcast its name (SSID), mine is not-- one needs to know it's name to connect to it, along with a passphrase, etc. If you are broadcasting the fact that you have a wi-fi network (and airwaves are public, BTW) then it can be tracked at will (just ask any police scanner owner).

I do wonder why they sniffed the networks, however, since that is not required for the above functionality.

So they break the law to expand their business, I see.

My access point is NOT set to broadcast, however, you should know that there is PLENTY software that will identify an active network even if the name is not broadcasting.

Mine is passworded/MAC filtered/non-broadcast, the only way to go.

Big uproar over private data being harvested by google in other countries, I guess when you are doing it for your govt, then it doesn't make too many waves in your own country, eh?
