It's to protect peoples privacy.
If I sleep over at some chicks place and park my car in the drive way then
anybody in that area will see me for sure. So it's not like I would expect total
privacy; but it's a bigger issue that a photo of my car is on google maps for everyone
in the word to see who I slept with.
Then there is the stalker that sees someone in a car and gets the license plate number
and then searches the homes in the area on google map until he spots the license
plate. Now he knows where the person lives.
Just think of it like this :
New technology breeds a new kind of crook.
Think of all the new kinds of crooks the internet created.
Now welcome google maps. Crooks will fucking use it.
