Google- too close for comfort?

Kalin, a resident in SanFran, decided to google maps her own location one day, and if you have ever done so it is at street level. Kalin was looking at her apartment window and could see her cat in the window, a clear photo, and this freaked Kalin out. If google maps could see her cat in the window, imagine what else it would do with a better camera. Kalin had put in reports for quite sometime but she just became known as the crazy cat woman. It was until she went public with it that someone actually decided to give her some answers. Although google understands her concern, it also helps with the safety of the neighborhood and garentees that the images/videos is just for locations and that no one would ever be zooming in to spy on someone.
