GOOGLE IS WATCHING YOU. LITERALLY.

As many of you already know, Google maps has sent a technology equipped car around the world capturing video feed of every street they can get their hands on. The video footage is then processed and loaded into Google Maps to give users a STREET VIEW of what your destination looks like. It's cool, but it's scary and with technology like this who needs privacy. Trip on the footage they got in front of Steve Jobs house. It's so damn clear in fact that you can see that his Benz has no plates on. Click HERE to see the view. This is seriously spy movie looking type of stuff especially when it pixelates into focus.
Here's a picture of one of the vehicles that's grabbing the footage. This new Volkswagen Beetle is one of the cars used to populate their new Street View function with pictures of major cities, or as Immersive Media (the company contracted by Google) themselves refer to it: 360° georeferenced spherical video. OK...yeah guy.
