Boing Boing: Google Street View: would it be more/less evil if it were CIA or NSA?
Would we feel differently about street-level image mapping if it were done by a government agency? The FBI? CIA? NSA? DHS? Not implying that it should be, and this isn't "backlash." Just asking aloud.
Here is how they are gathering these images. A company drives up and down the streets with a camera that takes images in all directions. Cool stuff, but like I said, eerie.
