From the pictures I've seen of their cars, I think it's this, but I'm not sure.
Also, I lol'ed:
Privacy advocates have objected to this Google feature, pointing to views found to show men leaving strip clubs, protesters at an abortion clinic, sunbathers in bikinis, cottagers at public parks, parents hitting their children, males picking up prostitutes and other activities, as well as people engaging in activities visible from public property in which they do not wish to be seen publicly.[42] Google maintains that the photos were taken from public property. Before launching the service, Google removed photos of domestic violence shelters, and allows users to flag inappropriate or sensitive imagery for Google to review and remove.[43] When the service was first launched, the process for requesting that an image be removed was not trivial;[44] however, Google has since changed its policy to make removal more straightforward.[45] Images of potential break-ins, sunbathers and individuals entering adult bookstores have, for example, remained active and these images have been widely republished.[46]

Some parents have expressed concern over Street View compromising the security of their children.[54]
Aaron and Christine Boring, a Pittsburgh couple sued Google for "invasion of privacy". They claimed that Street View made a photo of their home available online, and it diminished the value of their house, which was purchased for its privacy.[55] However, a photograph of the home of the Boring couple was already available on the county tax assessor's website prior to their lawsuit.[56]
