@Dave:
To stop Google? I mean if Google is ‘right’ why in the world would it ever stop and have something removed, like it or not. The problem here is that opinions lie divided. To me if Google has rights why should it give a chance to others for stopping it. I am either a bit confused over this or i am ‘right’ as well :s.

@John Sullivan
1. thanks for the appreciation
2. aaaa..i use Google for 99% of my search and recommend it to all:p so that makes me a fan even if i say i am not :s
3. Siding with Google isn’t wrong on this one, specially when you know the service has had a job of putting out the MAP (Google Map).

The argument here is simply to point out that Google is blunt on this one, forget the people going to the court over the matter; i know people at times go overboard to fleece some cash off a giant’s reputation. But Google needs to show some responsibility over this matter.

@Rubin
Apology for the error, the heading reads that alone the post doesn’t.

Your argument that Google’s remove feature shows what they are doing is somehow wrong is ridiculous. It is a recognition of the fact that some people don’t like it when a giant company does what it has a right to do. Rather than fight with those people, in this case, Google has made it possible for them to quickly and easily get Google to stop. That’s going above and beyond on their part.

Google isn’t saying “Privacy doesn’t exist.” It’s sayig “COMPLETE privacy doesn’t exist.”

Which sounds pretty obvious to me…

1 I’m a fan of your blog
2 I’m not a big fan of Google’s
3 I side with Google on this one.
That’s it case closed no harm done.I can walk up and take a picture of your house from the public street or air and there’s nothing you can do about it.
Those people should pay Google’s lawyers fees actually.
I know you won’t like this opinion but I got ya the next time:)
