As a photographer, I'm all for taking pictures and posting them online. I'm not deleting or cropping anyone out just because you ask me to.

Also, I hope that Google never "become grown up as some of the larger companies" - they're doing right and different from the mold and I hope they never change out of that.

It would take the prowler years to looks through all the street view pics trying to find one person who may not even be in any of the pictures.

Do you think you can just type in someone's name and it will take you to a picture of them in street view?

It will be funny when you or someone you care about gets photograghed in a humiliating position and those photos go world-wide. It's not just MS and google, its people like you that are subtly killing privacy too

Don't argue with a photographer. They make money taking pictures of things they don't own, then they claim they own the photo of it. It's a shady business. Because of them people with home cameras can't get pictures developed if they look "professional" and can't reprint things like year book photos and family photos because somehow paying someone to take your picture gives them ownership of the picture by default.

Photographers should be allowed to capture what they want in public space - people and all. I'm not talking about taking pictures in private spaces like inside homes and hotel rooms.

PS: I have never made any money from my photos. I do it as a hobby.

It's irrelevant whether your being paid or not, and just because it's in a public space does not make it right. Would you condone people having their conversations recorded at public establishments and their transcripts posted on the web?
Thats what your doing McFly!

Re: .

Photographers, including armature and professionals, are allowed to capture what they want in public places and freely post to publicize their own work. The images that photographers capture is the rightful property of the photographer to do with as he/she chooses. Period!

If you are out in public, what right do you have to privacy?
I believe the courts have ruled many times over you have no privacy rights in public.

Now if they are using a telephoto lens or thermal imaging camera and are looking into the windows of a private home, that is a privacy invasion.

using a major city as an example(most common places on streetview) if you are on a sidewalk/on the bus/subway in Manhattan, you should expect zero right to privacy. there are likely 100s of times in an afternoon where you are photographed in some fashion in a city. walking past an ATM, or heck going past the MTV or WABC studios in Times Square, if either one is on the air atm you could be pictured and your image beamed around the world.

And it's people like you who are overtly killing freedom of speech and expression.

If you dont want to be photographed in a humiliating position, then don't do humiliating things in plain view of public property.

Juding from your insane rambling, I'd bet that you've had an embarassing picture published on the internet.

You're trying to limit the rights of others in order to satisfy what you feel is your right. What about someone elses right to take a photograph of a building? Or a landscape? Or their right to make an audio recording of themselves while you're audible on the tape because you're speaking obnoxiously on your cellphone nearby.
If your insane idea of the law was reality, you would be complaining that *so and so* building was roped off and no one could go by it because someone was taking a picture of it. Or complaining about photographers bothering you for releases because the back of your head is in the lower right corner of their picture of *landmark*.

All of this because you feel that when in public no one should be able to look at or listen to you because you'll embarass yourself.

Your private property isn't public. Google goes even as far as driving up your private road to take photos of you by your pool.

Uh.... Sorry, but there is no expectation of privacy when you're in a public place. A photographer with a camera has just as much right to be there as you do, and if they take a picture and you're in it, it doesn't mean you have veto power over their image. Sorry.

Work made for hire, if I pay a wedding photographer for their services, I technically own the photos. If I wanted to be an ass I could go to court and have them seized if need be.

So if you're on vacation and you're at the beach and you take a snapshot of your family and some person who may be in the shot inadvertantly comes up to you and says to give him the camera because you have no right to take a picture of him, you're just handing over your camera right? I thought not.

i sometimes wonder if some people go into the supermarket security office and ask for the time they where shopping to be erased. or walk past a bank ATM and then protest they are now on file with its camera simply by walking past.

i have a suggestion, dont goto London because the police have cameras on multiple corners.
