Houses being blurred on streetview is a courtesy, not a right. So for educatianal purposes, here is the house Google blurred.
I don’t see Garrett’s personal flock camera.
Deflock.org shows that he has a camera in his yard focusing on his driveway (and the neighbor’s front door)
Likely vandalism. Deflock uses openstreetmap but I don’t know their update frequency.
More likely that the street view scan was taken before the flock camera. Not like this is realtime.
I think I read that street views get updated every three years on average with residential areas being updated less than urban areas. Frequently updates make more sense for areas where businesses might change, less so for homes.
Yeah, I consult at a law firm every now and then when they need someone qualified to add shit. We often use Google photos to determine when repairs to infrastructure were made without having to go through public records requests. That way, for example consider this timeline: there was a trip and fall on a broken kerb, and there is a photo on Google of it being broken ten years before the fall, there’s a new photo of it broken six months after the trip and fall (which includes a little sign that says “I broke my damn ankle on this kerb”) and has a little shrine and maybe an ofrenda to the cool pants they were wearing that they tore a hole in the butt, and then like magic the city has repaired the kerb six months after the photo.
Now in this straw man I’ve built for you (and I’m from farmer stock, it’s what we’re good at) (I can’t remember who I saw said that but thanks, I’m stealing it) we’re not going through historical Google photos to stalk, we’re going through them in a single location (very, very narrow location) to see precisely when changes happened so we can prove that the city should have known about the damage to the kerb just by dint of it existing so long. So we can get the city to pay our client’s medical bills, since it’s the city’s job to maintain the krebs.
Is why I’m glad Google maps exists even though it’s privacy invasive
Why does it look like Florida?
Because Georgia is Florida’s next door neighbor.
What’s this about a pool?
The increasing amount of blurring on street view is on the verge of rendering it useless.
that’s all I had to type to bring it up
Apologies for my French, but…
Fudge You, Garrett Langley… and everyone involved in the system…
In the fudging awful, sorrowful, inhuman, dystopian system…The original tweet with the address was funny.
The other two tweets of people making effectively the same joke but worse are not.
Why include them?
You guys are never happy.
I’m on a crusade against screenshots with replyguys. Just post the funny thing! Skip the clout chaser!
At least the first message is new information. If factual it implies that he asked for his home to be blurred after the address was posted
