@Junkyarddawg - If you're that worried about privacy, do you ever leave the house? Do you cover the license plate on your car when you're out driving? I mean, you should, because otherwise people will be able to see what your license plate is!!!
@davidgoodchild - there's a small difference between people out in public seeing your license plate, and 400 million people worldwide having access to it, don't you think?
Darn, I misinterpreted the title:"How to use Google Maps Street View outside the US!" I thought meant "How to use Google Maps Street View (other cities) outside the US!"It took me a second or two of trying to view lovely Paris before I realized my error.

How the hell did they map all of this out? And will they ever give up updating it? It would taking a crap load of effort to keep this up to date!
