Cheating husband caught on Google Street View

A FURIOUS wife has called in divorce lawyers after spotting her husband’s car parked outside another woman’s house — on Google.

She saw the Range Rover while using the internet giant’s new Street View service to snoop on a female friend’s home.

The hubby had claimed he was away on business, but his missus recognised his motor immediately because of its blinged-up hubcaps.

The love cheat is not the only husband trapped by Google’s controversial new 360-degree photo search which covers 25 cities and towns throughout the country.

Top media lawyer Mark Stephens said: “I was talking about the Range Rover case when another divorce lawyer came up to say his firm was dealing with the same sort of thing. People are getting caught out on Google.

“I suspect the husband’s lawyers will claim it was an invasion of privacy that will cost him his marriage and Range Rover.”

Street View has triggered a stream of complaints from people caught on camera since its launch on March 20.

Google removed some images — including a man sheepishly leaving a sex shop. An office worker was also caught having a crafty cigarette by a No Smoking sign.

the one of my home has my old car, from about 2 years ago:lol Like all the pictures were taken at the same time. The one of our house is like six months old.

[SpursWoman]

Ours still shows an empty lot ... which would make it at least 2 1/2 years old. :fro

[Bukefal]

Good for him! lol

Thats why cheating is bad kids :nope

[BacktoBasics]

Its still an invasion of privacy. This kind of stuff should be illegal.

no it's not, it's public view.

this was bound to happen sooner or later.

I dont like it either, but so long faces etcc. are covered up, its legal.

[Shelly]

my street must've been in early January because someone's Christmas tree is on the curb. I know it's recent because I can tell by what plants I have in the front :lol

Although, they could have picked any other day than trash day to take a picture our street

Another thing about the street view is one angle to the next can be a different time or day.

My daughter and I just looked at the house she lives in a few days ago. From one angle, her Neon is parked in front of it. Change the angle, and you see her boyfriends Subaru.

Now I'd like to know when how the woman knows what day the picture of the husbands vehicle was parked there. Was he in the picture too? I didn't read that. Did I miss it? I wonder if it was parked there on a day she went to her friends house, or a day they both did.

Did anyone rule out that possibility?

The street view of my place is at least 1-1/2 years old and the satellite view is sometime two summers ago.

Why do they have to cover faces? I've see people in street view! As far as I know, you're wrong.

[BacktoBasics]

no it's not, it's public view.

this was bound to happen sooner or later.I understand that technically its not illegal.

I still feel that I'm owned a right to not be digitally tracked. I feel its an invasion of my personal space.

[Phineas J. Whoopee]

Google didn't cheat.

This thread gives me a deja vu

How is it invasion of privacy when it's made public?

How is it invasion of privacy when it's made public?Cameras stalking your every move isn't invasive?

those are the arguments the divorce lawyers will sort out

who is digitally tracking you?

[Blake]

How is it invasion of privacy when it's made public?

if someone is out in clear public view, it's not an invasion of privacy.

[JoeChalupa]

I think it is pretty cool. Can't tell when the pic was taken of my street. I don't have a problem with it. Yet that is.

[CuckingFunt]

I'm lucky. Given the weather/climate where I live, most of the satellite and street views on Google are too damn foggy to see anything.

[Creepn]

I just tried it for the first time. Awesome technology but damn it really does make me uncomfortable.

It's a moment in time that gets updated in very long intervals. I think about 3-4 years.

[BacktoBasics]

who is digitally tracking you?Just because its not zero'd in on me personal doesn't mean I'm not digitally tracked. I don't like it.

[CosmicCowboy]

Dude was an idiot for tapping his wife's friend to start with.

[SpursStalker]

Cameras stalking your every move isn't invasive?

It might be evasive but as soon as it's made public, it's all over.

[MANGINA]

Cameras are everywhere these days so get used to it.

[BacktoBasics]

Cameras are everywhere these days so get used to it.Thats the problem right there. Every new day brings a new way to knock the average citizen down a notch. We're getting stripped of our rights left and right and that "get used to it" attitude has fucked this country beyond comprehension.

What rights are you getting stripped of when a camera takes a photo of you in public view?

Do you yell at the mailman when he looks at you watering the front yard?

[CosmicCowboy]

Actually, a lot of people get freaked by a camera. That is my latest defense/offense against street corner bums...I carry a camera in my truck all the time and when they start towards me I roll my window down and whip out the camera...

Fuckers run like an A list celebrity from the papparazzi throwing their hand up to block their face LOL.

I'd still rather live here. So I'm on camera somewhere. :rolleyes

Poke fun at B2B all you want, at least the Brits do something about it. Their entire country is under surveillance basically.

Does that mean I can sue anyone who posts or prints or shows any photograph or video where I or my family or house or car is clearly visible? Will ESPN need consent from every fan in every picture of a sporting event? Actually I think that may already be taken care of in the small print of your ticket but I'm not sure.
I understand why B2B gets nervous or doesn't like it and I'm not crazy about giving up my rights either.
How does one spot a Google picture van?
