Here we go again. It seems like only last month I mentioned the legal efforts to restrain Google's Street View system in the UK (probably because it was).
Now we're starting to see active resistance to it. Residence of Milton Keynes have made it clear that a handful of them don't want their houses as part of the display.
I maintain it's a shame and visitors to this country will arrive expecting their street view clients to work, then will assume we're somehow backward when they don't. It's going to be fascinating to see how this pans out in the end.
