I do. It's a public space. But while Google gives me the option to remove it, I will.

So you are vandal. You are vandalizing Street View.

Let's put a webcam at your door. Your employer would love to confirm you are on your way on time this morning and some of us would love to see you struggling with the keys again, like the other night.

It's public information.

This reads like sarcasm right now in this context, but it won't always. By 2020, I would expect cameras to be so cheap, widespread, and connected that you can walk virtually down most city streets in real time. Shortly after that's common, the idea that you would consider the outside of your home "private" will seem peculiar.

I can well believe that will be the case. I saw a link on HN the other day for 'personal drones', unmanned flying devices that track you with GPS taking aerial photos along the way http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274870363170457555...

If it's not regulated then I'll call myself libertarian and sabotage as many cameras as possible. If it's left behind on public space it's public.
