It seems kind of silly that they're making such a big deal out of it. People take pictures with their personal cameras all the time. And it seems practically everyone uploads their photos to Flickr these days. Considering Google even does the courtesy of blurring faces and license plate numbers, I don't know how this is any worse than finding yourself in someone else's Flickr or Facebook picture.

As The Canadian Press put it, “Obviously you need to protect privacy, and you need to work with governments and local authorities to make sure that any concerns they may have, you have to answer to them. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.” (The Canadian Press as quoted at http://www.newsy.com/videos/privacy_in_the_age_of_google/)
