Brits Say No to Google

I find Google Street View sometimes useful but at the same time it is a bit creepy and I think it borders on invasion of privacy.

From Wired...
They didn't exactly wield pitchforks and torches, but some residents of the comfortable Buckinghamshire village of Broughton in Southeast Britain took umbrage at the Google Street View car tooling through their streets — and physically blocked the car to put a put an end to it.

"Forming a human chain to stop it, they harangued the driver about the “invasion of privacy," The Times of London reports, "adding that the images that Google planned to put online could be used by burglars."
