Google has decided to stop collecting Street View photos in Germany, where regulators have spent much of the past two years
railing against the search giant for
violating the privacy of German residents. A company spokesman confirmed the decision in a statement sent to the Register, explaining that the images gathered across 20 German cities will remain available online, but reiterating that Google has "
no plans to launch new imagery" in the country.

The freedom to walk along all streets worldwide truely means to see and watch everyone and everything and it means as well being visible and watched by anyone or everyone. This may not be true now, might it?

No, that will always be true. It simply means that Germans (like many Americans) are too stupid to understand what "privacy" means.
Anything you can see from public property (like a street) IS NOT PRIVATE. Period.
The fact that this simple concept escapes anyone is a testament to human stupidity.
