This evening I was looking up a local business via Google Maps & I engaged the Street View on Google Maps. I decided to follow the new bridge they completed last year. Deciding to navigate further to view my own home via the Street View since the new updated Google Maps had a time stamp of April, 2019 I followed the highway to my own home.

Crazy enough - my own '71 CS Convertible was captured by the Google Maps vehicle while capturing the new updated (April, 2019) Google Maps. How bizarre! I was probably heading home from playing golf.

that's cool and a beautiful car. At first glance it looked like a driver-less Oldsmobile

Cool. The Google car caught my wife walking out the front door of our house when it drove by. I remember her mentioning that she saw a weird car drive by with something on the roof. I thought at the time that it must be the Google street view car, and sure enough it was.

Guess what else Google street view was doing? Monitoring cell phone signals!

Selling the information gathered to anyone that wants to send advertisements to your smart phone, computer, anything that is connected to the signal through the cloud.
