  18. Privacy II Case Study:Google Street View (This story was written by Melissa Eddy of the Associated Press and published on 8/20/10. It appears at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38787704/.) BERLIN — Germans have long harbored an obsession about protecting privacy, with memories of Nazi-era denouncements of neighbors and East German secret police snooping still alive. Now they have found a new target for their fears: Google "Street View." Under strong government pressure, the Internet giant made Germany the only country where people can request to have images of their homes deleted from the project before it goes online in November, along with other concessions. It has all stirred debate about how to define and defend privacy in the digital age and revealed a yawning generational divide between those old enough to recall invasive past regimes and those who have grown up with the Internet. "There is a fear of becoming a 'See-through Citizen' in a totalitarian surveillance state," said JeskoKaltenbaek, a professor of psychology at Berlin's Freie University. "Both under the Nazis and in the former East Germany, the exact knowledge of citizens' lives served as a decisive instrument of power for government leaders." At the heart of the debate That concern lies at the heart of the current debate, where politicians have been criticizing Google for allegedly trampling the rights of citizens who are disturbed by the idea that "Street View" might help strangers locate them in their homes. Germany's Consumer Protection Minister IlseAigner has repeatedly called for Google to reveal more about the information that it holds and how it is collected.
