Though Google was founded with good intention of searching information on the internet efficiently. But in recent times, some of the applications launched by the company have gone too far and seems to be doing more evil than good. Google street view is example of this.
Many organisations have already accused Google for privacy breach. One can understand the use of Google maps and Earth though both of these applications have been used by terrorists but why on earth we need to provide 360 degree pictures of every single street. Of course they take anyone pictures on the street and in some cases you can zoom into the pictures to see inside the windows of the shopping malls and houses.
When the terrorist had attacked on Mumbai they had heavily used in their training Google earth and maps to get familiar with their targets. Google street will make life of terrorists outfits more easy. Now they can see and feel how the streets and the targets look like in real even before landing there.
I personally believe that Google Street View should be banned. Your comments are welcomed.
