A Google street car passed me by

Perhaps two days ago, a Google street car (or something like that) passed me by while I was on the sidewalk. I've since been checking out the location on Google Maps via street view to see if it's updated yet. I can imagine it would be fun to see myself on Google Maps and show others. I was wearing a white cricket hat, dark blue jacket, light blue jeans and brown shoes. It was very close to the beach.

@SStarfish I can imagine it's a lot easier for them to just blur out the faces and the plates from a legal perspective.

@Andrew19EightyFive oh is that why? 😅

@SStarfish Not sure, but it's a possibility. They could include a clause within a Google/Google related ToS with the intent to get people to agree to the processing of their faces and license plates in the case that they're captured, but then there's the possibility that they could capture the face or license plate of someone who isn't a user of any Google services. And it looks like there's new legislation out that requires one to gain the permission of another before publishing video or a photograph of him or her.
