What's the issue???
Yawn!! OK, so a Google car is driving down the street snapping photos and all of the sudden it's such a huge deal? Where has everyone been? A9.com, Amazon.com's search engine, was doing this 3 years ago when they were trying to be a real search engine and had their own maps. Google's not worried about the privacy concerns at this point. Street views have been done already. Google just has to do it in a way they don't get sued. Granted, A9 is no longer a real search engine and dropped maps and directions all together, but they did it first. I didn't hear this complaining then, but then Amazon doesn't have the cash that Google has. Vultures.
