Sunday reading: Google Streetview - linked because I'm fed up with all the pro-Streetview talk and the "who pixelates doesn't understand the net" faction. The net is a medium for the whole society and not just a playground for some tech enthusiasts. And whoever ties their net freedom to the permission for unrestricted data collection for a large corporation has a significant understanding deficit. Especially when the sole purpose of this corporation is the systematic evaluation of these data mountains for the optimization of advertising.
