Aftervillagers chased the Street View cars awayin Buckinghamshire , England , it became pretty obvious last twelvemonth that a fortune of Brits were unhappy get their sign and streets document online .

Google currently update Street View annually with new photos , but the EU view they require to change their retention policy to just six months . The mind boggles with the time and expense that ’d throw Google , so I would n’t be surprised if this one goes to court — which is just what Google needs after beinghit with an antitrust investigationby the EU last workweek , and the whole commercial enterprise over in Italy where three Google employees wereconvicted in a Google Video lawsuit .

One 24-hour interval Google will pull its services out of Europe forever and a day , and then we ’ll be hold fast using Bing , Symbian and Streetmap . WILL YOU BE HAPPY THEN , HUH EUROPE ? [ TelegraphviaTechRadar ]
Ed . tone : Upon closer review , it looks like the EU is asking Google to edit the birthday suit images within six months , but the censored I — the 1 that are live on the Google Street View — can live for as long as they require .
