arstechnica.com — Google is in hot water again over invasive Street View photos that ignore private roads and "No Trespassing" signs. While privacy's existence is still being debated, perhaps the company just needs a lesson in how to read.

May if some "google is evil", or "Microsoft is God", or "Larry Page is a commie" signs start appearing on people's lawns, well...maybe nothing, but it'd be funny!

@PusodPusod If you don't want people to see those things than might I suggest shutting your garage door and putting up a 10ft tall fence?

Oh, they drive on dirt roads, Near Omaha, NE there is a dirt road with a nice trapezoid shaped bridge that if you look at the Street View of it you notice the dirt trail stops right at the end of the bridge for a moment before continuing. In other words the Google Street View driver caught air, which can be done on this particular bridge at speeds as low as 25 miles per hour, and I know that speed because I enjoy catching air off of it often as well.So yes, they do dirt roads, and they have fun while doing them.

My plan is to put up an 18 foot high cement wall around my residence. I will also not allow my future teenage daughter to leave the house lest she be visually molested by sickos. I will also not buy a car because if people find out what kind of car I drive and what license plate I have, think about what else they could find out about me! My phone number will be unlisted. These measures are necessary to preserve my privacy. It is disgusting to me that in America, there are thousands if not tens of thousands of sickos who search google street view for no reason other than to gratuitously invade my privacy. Thank you for taking a stand on this issue Pusod.f**k GOOGLE!

Google already collects information on your computer usage, so why not drive up on your lawn?Google is on the way to being the next anti-christ.

I don't want somebody halfway across the world looking at the "light that is bouncing OFF of the houses" on my street. OK?
