There is no expectation of privacy in public.
By which I mean that things like blurring a house from Street View are unreasonable.
IMO, blurring a house in Street View could lead to the Streisand effect, especially when 99% of all other property is unblurred.
If you want to remain private, in the case of Street View, your best bet is to keep it as inconspicuous as possible, otherwise people will start looking closer and ask questions; the exact opposite of what you want, even if you have nothing to hide.
Nuclear war should do the trick at re-establishing this kind of privacy.
Hell, is other people
why do you think so?
The survivors will have more immediate concerns than invading my privacy and they will understand the value of their own privacy as well.
Except if someone with the means wants to exert control over the survivors asap. there's a class which was being busy building bunkers in the last decade or more
I'm sure their agents will taste delicious and they'll carry great loot. Delicious long pig.
