At least I'm not the only one. I've been yelled at by Google employees at a variety of booths at conferences more than once. How annoying. Should've used Twitter.

@ExOverHoo:
Google: We can photograph your private driveway, and catch you coming out of a massage parlor, but please don't photograph us...err...anywhere.

You can read my mind! I just had the same thought.

@Magister: Actually goo-girl herself banned the cameras from her house (in SF I believe). Not ironic, just Google.

Isn't it ironic that the company which is getting sued for driving a camera car up someone's driveway, photgraphing their private property and through whose efforts we've seen people crash their bikes or making possible drug deals have a policy against unauthorized, drive-by photos?

Google -- What's good for the goose, the gander can not do.

Its Google. They have always lived in an alternate reality. They have their own food, buses, planes, etc...

Their job is not to integrate with society, but rather have society integrate with them (ie. Borgoogle)

Take whatever pics you want, just as long as you don't Photoshop the word 'Googirl' in later.
