Warning Google Street View now covering 85% of UK

Options
If like me you prefer you privacy, check your homes on google street view.. sends a chill down my spine when zooming in on the lock on my back door :eek:

You can request the removal of the images, which I have done on another property last year, but have just checked again and they have got another property thats in a small close.. yup they went all the way in and must have even reversed in my drive lol

and the other property is in the sticks and they have got that as well


God were turning into a big brother nation

    So what?

    People like you should get a grip and stop moaning. You'll be stopping people driving down your road next in case they see your house.

    Pathetic.

    I'm a bit miffed that the trees on my drive are blocking a good view of my house!

    That is so funny hope they were clean


    Mr Lahey you should remember what side your breads buttered as I was prob the only person who attempted to defend you when you posted about getting your knickers in a twist for being fined for driving illegally with below depth tyres. You are in no position to tell me about getting a grip and stop moaning after your rant in which several 100 people told you to shut up lmfao



    Being married to a policeman who deals daily with break ins I am happy to be OTT on safety. I also live in a close so only people with reason come down here.. any shady characters would be noted by curtain twichers lol

    My friends flat is on there and you can still look skywards and see several floors!!!

    I thought it was 85% but may well be wrong
  • I just zoomed in on the lock on my front door and it's very blurred, is your clear?
