To me it’s a cost/benefit compromise. I really go out of my way to make sure I use exactly zero google products, but I think the utility that Street View provides to the average citizen is quite sizeable and cannot just be dismissed. However the CIA would never provide this utility to the average person, they keep everything they touch for themselves like a dragon on a pile of gold.
