Google Canada Street View faces and plates
p2pnet news view Advertising | P2P:- Google has been taking heavy fire from all around the world, and not just from people.
Governments, too, are complaining because all-too-many of Gargoyle’s Street View Snoop-O-Rama images which, according to the company, are blurred by “state-of-the-art technology,” are easily recognizable.
As p2pnet posted yesterday, Canada is the latest country to become yet another advertising prop.
Gogle calls it a ’service’. And it is.
For Groogle.
The pic on the right shows someoneoutside Concordia University in Montréal telling Gogle what he thinks of Street View.
Below are a bunch of other pix from Quebec, carefully compiled by Marc. And they’re not the only ones.
We’ve done Google’s job for it, blurring faces and licences.
You’re welcome, Google.
But the plates and faces are all clearly visible in the originals.
And, obviously, to anyone who wants to follow Marc’s example.
He found a similar results when he cruised Gargle street views in Switzerland.
