    People passing by and getting a temporary snapshot with their eyes? No problem

    A tech monopoly putting photos online, for anyone anywhere at any time to see, and constantly updating the photos? Thats a problem.

    Without even thinking hard I can imagine several malicious uses like stalkers finding their victims home, or burglars casing neighborhoods for gates or cameras.

    You naïveté does not define the norm for everyone else. Would you livestream video on the internet of your front door online, 24/7? Of course not.

      IDEA: an AI that crawls Street View, ranks addresses by ease of break-in, and generates plans for pulling off heists.

      If you can’t make your point without moving the goalposts over the horizon, you don’t have an actual point.

        If you can’t make your point without moving the goalposts over the horizon, you don’t have an actual point.

        I made my point, twice even. That final example is what’s know as hyperbole, trying to make the point get across to you by over exaggerating. You ignored two examples (stalkers and burglars), to focus that. Moving the goalposts is an entire different thing.

        hyperbole

        1. Deliberate or unintentional overstatement, particularly extreme overstatement.
