National security risk

I am flabbergasted to find out about Google's Street View software and their proposed plans to photograph British residential streets to upload to their mapping service Google Earth. If it isn't a national security risk it is totally disregarding of personal privacy. The Google Street View Team have even been posing for the camera waving their Red Flags! People are entitled to and demand privacy and security. Even if our own Security Services don't seem to take much notice of this highly suspect activity, terrorists, criminals, foreign intelligence and military services will be.

The Google Street team wave their red flags for the spy camera:
