I don't really care to make the argument, no, since I think street numbers are reasonably expected to be in the public domain in the culture I've grown up with.

I don't really care to make the argument, no, since I think street numbers are reasonably expected to be in the public domain in the culture I've grown up with. But I wouldn't rule out that someone else looks at it differently to the degree that I'd pose it as a rhetorical question, as an example that's illuminating in its absurdity. That was really all I was trying to say. Though whether or not it'd be a logistical nightmare for Google or startups really doesn't play into it; all kinds of privacy (and other) regulations are logistical nightmares for those whose business it is to violate them. E.g. kyc regulations were a logistical nightmare for financial services that didn't bother or didn't want to k their cs.
