Couple sues Google to keep their property “private”
April 4, 2008 – 1:17 pm
It’s almost like the story that caused the “Streisand Effect” to be coined. Google StreetView captures images of homes and businesses all over the country. In this case, they went on a private road to get their imagery, and the owners of a house on that road are suing Google to get the images removed (oh, and $25,000).
Of course, this has quickly caused images of their house to spread everywhere. More details can be found on the Digital Earth Blog or the Smoking Gun.
