Google says the imagery is “gathered by vehicles driving public property streets equipped with imaging technology”.
So the next time you see some car or van around your house with this 11 lens camera mounted on the top, shut the door and the windows of your house if you are really worried about your privacy.
Thankfully, they are shooting images for Google Street Maps only from the roads and not inside the building premises.
