Google is under the gun and being pressured to disclose the names of workers that were responsible for writing codes that snooped and captured personal data on wireless networks for the Street View cars mapped streets.

So far Google’s responses are more suspect then acceptable and now the U.S. Attorney General among 38 other U.S. States are now asking did they break any laws. This invasion of privacy is drawing concern from not only the U.S. but from other countries as well.

Google is being told that tell whether or not the testing of Street View what was actually found when they captured the data from wireless networks and along with that everyone wants the names of those that wrote that code. More importantly people want to know what Google actually did with the information that was gathered during its testing.

Even if this was unintentional, it seems highly unlikely that Google was completely unaware of this code which allowed the Street View cars to collect data broadcasted over Wi-Fi networks. Steps are being taking including legal action if necessary to obtain those answers.

So far Google is stating that the data collected was not intentional and a mistake. Well that’s all well and good but why is Google side stepping the demand for answers?

The immediate fix per Google’s Vice President Brian McClendon that was implemented earlier in the month was to disable and no longer collect any Wi-Fi information at all. It will however, still continue to collect photos and 3D imagery as was being done before. All Wi-Fi data collection equipment has officially been removed from the cars. Along with this Google maintains that it was a mistake and has profusely apologized for the error.

Either way, Google will more then likely be taken to court in order for the world to be able to get the answers that they are seeking.
