Couple Sue Google Over House Image

Yet again the courts need to decide whether "you can always ask us to remove it" is reasonable. As more and more sites and services potentially infringe on copyright and privacy, are companies and individuals expected to constantly crawl the web and look for their image/info/work being listed, and then look for a way of opting out?

I'm pretty sure that Google are legally allowed to take photos of streets and use them in Google Maps. The couple are asserting that Google "entered the driveway of the couple's private property, in order to take pictures to be uploaded on the website". If that is the fact, and can be proven, it might be an interesting case to keep an eye on.
