Google Maps Street View questioned by Canadian privacy chief
Canada's privacy comissioner has said that Google Maps' Street View may violate Canada's privacy laws. Street View would violate the privacy laws because citizens may not be aware that they have been photographed. Google Maps' Street View is currently unavailable in Canada, but has been made available in nine major cities in the US. Google's policy allows people to write in when a license plate or face has been captured so that it can be removed. However, the privacy comissioner asserts that this is only a partial solution because the damage to privacy has already been done.
