I live in Germany and eyed the whole process of Google Street View. The whole thing with the opt-out is more considered to be a conflict of generations, so don't take this too seriously. The problem is a different one: if in one apartment building only one rentee opts out the whole apartment building becomes blurred. This is what caused a lot of hate by rentees who want the house to be seen in Street View. Another action that occured (only in German, sorry, but I'll try to translate roughly): http://asset.soup.io/asset/1253/8519_985c.jpeg http://asset.soup.io/asset/1253/8519_985c.jpeg Someone put a note saying that because some rentee saw his private sphere violated by Google Street View he won't accept packages for his neighbours anymore since this is also a violation of private sphere. Additionally he blurred his signature for security reasons (because of the often quoted argument that showing the house in Google Street View causes safety concerns).
