okay....didn't you guys read all the stuff that google map wanted access to when you installed it? LOL. i said no to all the history and the increasing accuracy etc, and turned off the history as soon as it was installed. And every time it asks to make my location more accurate i just say no.....i go to your link and look myself up and there's NOTHING. absolutely NOTHING! there's a big wide world map and a push pin in the middle of the atlantic ocean. so i guess i don't exist. GOOD. ;-P

I must admit I was really PO'd to find our house now on Street View. I didn't think they'd get out here and apparently there's nothing you can do!

i just about hit the google camera car as it came out of my ravine on the wrong side of the road as i was headed into the ravine going towards him on the right side of the road. i wonder if they got the photo of me with my hand on the horn and yelling non-ladylike language while trying to avoid the guardrail....

I went to the MEGA SUPER WALMART today to drive there electric shopping carts & practice my turkey calls . Wonder if that drove Google map crazy tracking my trail thru the rows of veggies , boots , clothes , hunting , fishing , hardware , bakery etc etc . & out to the parking lot . Hmmm more fun than I thought . Haheee Luck

Agree wholeheartedly, I saw them drive by, wouldn't you know it, they even got my truck leaving the driveway, I just find that offensive to the max!
