Not For Stalkers.
I don't understand why there's a whole controversy about google street view. I think it's awesome! It shows smaller details in a 3-d layout that helps people find and recognize places more easily. I am a frequent user of google street view and i think it's great. They are not violating any privacy laws because they blur faces and license plates. I think it's a privilege to be able to use google street view. Google took the time and money to drive through every street in Toronto so we can use it to our advantage, and they don't even charge us a single penny! Speaking of saving money, you may not have to buy a GPS, or waste gas looking for places when you have Google Street View. it is an amazing invention that is much more beneficial to people than a risk of privacy. it's also pretty fun to play with when you're bored. I took a nice drive by my neighbourhood yesterday on Google Street view, and I couldn't make out any faces, meaning it isn't really a security risk. Google doesn't need permission from everyone in Canada just to drive down a street and take pictures of houses. I think people are making way to big of a deal about their privacy. The pros of street view clearly weigh out the cons. Thank You Google!
