Jun 30 2010Woman Pissed After Google Street View Captures Her 3-Year Old's Naked Booty

Claire Rowlands is a British woman who's ultra-pissed after the Google Street View car inadvertently captured a shot of her 3-year old son's bare asscheeks. Pfft, I played in the front yard naked till I was 17.
She said: 'I just felt sick to my stomach when I saw the naked picture of Louis on the internet. I'm angry, disgusted and upset about it - they should be checking every image before it goes up.
'They should be extra careful on warm days because this is what children do - he was just playing in the garden and we didn't expect in a million years he'd have his picture taken and put on the internet for anyone to see.'It's such a clear image, I see it as an indecent photograph - my concern is that paedophiles could see it and there's no way I ever wanted my son to be seen naked all over the world.
Google has now apologised and said it has blurred the image.
Two Three words: throw some pants on the kid and stop complaining. Nobody wants to see the little bastard running through the sprinkler naked anyways. Except the ice cream man, and he has his own camera.

Don't let your kid out like that if you're gonna be pissed if it's on the internet.
If a car with a camera could see it, who else could? Stupid parents.

I doubt pedos would even come across that image (unless, it were to be publicly pointed out... like now).
Besides there are millions of pictures of other, more attractive, three year olds for pedos to use...

Perhaps.... Perhaps she should not let her child run around naked in the front yard?

First is she fucking retarded? You know the fleet of people google would have to hire to check EVERY single picture that goes up, they would go bankrupt!
Second if you just call google and say there is a picture like this they take it down upon your request. But i guess freaking out scream and making it so this picture is passed around the internet and will never die is another way to have google blur it...

"They should be extra careful on warm days because this is what children do"
1. Ah yes, of course! All children run around naked in te yard on warm days! Why, just the other day I stepped out side and there weren't any nudey kids running around, and I was like "WTF? Aren't there children who should be running around O' naturale??
2. What is Google suppose to do here in Florida? EVERY day is a warm day between February and September.

We don't spell anything weird,
It's our language, it originated here.
Americans deciding it was too difficult to spell words correctly only makes you illiterate.
I truely wish some Americans had more brains than arrogance.
If only they could see that this is why so many people dislike them.

You are a semi-literate buffoon and this attempt at a sentence proves it.
I'm amazed your command of English is good enough to know that we spell Paedophile differently.

32. Rich Waffle-U - July 1, 2010 5:13 AM
He's not my type.
When that kid is older, he's going to be pretty disappointed that his one chance to effectively moon the entire world in one go was cruelly snatched from him by an overbearing mother.
33. Jimmy - July 1, 2010 5:20 AM
He is playing in the front yard where cars can drive by, people have already seen his naked ass. Maybe he should be in the frigging back yard?

Why is she upset when she has that little beast running about naked? Shouldn't it have clothes on? "Shut. Up. Twat" - Alex
40. Rudy - July 1, 2010 11:04 AM
This makes no sense for the following reasons:
1. If she is worried about pedophiles, how come she's not keeping an eye on her son and prevented him from going out butt-naked. Maybe she's spending to much time in front of the internet.
2. She should have kept details about her complaint anonymous, like not mention her son's name or have their picture taken for the news articles.
3.Also by giving her son's name, this means the kid may get picked on when he goes to school that will lead to a screwed up childhood.
Clearly this woman doesn't have her son's best interest at heart nor is she really worried about pedophiles.
41. NotEye - July 1, 2010 11:05 AM
@28 Hate to break it to you - but 'Dr. Who' really sucked-ass. You don't have to pretend to like it to be cool nowadays; just wear a man-scarf and visibly carry a Mac product like the rest of the wannabes. just sayin'
42. Dr Who's Mom - July 1, 2010 11:52 AM
@26 & 28: I'm with you on the American "English", but "truely" isn't a word, so I guess you kind of pwned yourself.
@the haters: yes, America won "the War". You've also lost every war since, so don't get too cocky.

No, that's what WHITE TRASH children do. It's a subtle, but important difference.

I bet this stupid hooker tries to sue Google for it. If I were the cops I would go arrest her for public nudity or something like that, after all it's the parents fault the child was running around naked.

47. WhateverHelpYouSleepAtNightBtc - July 1, 2010 12:16 PM
Ok. So she's worried that pedophiles will see it on the internet & totally blames google?
1. You kid should be wearing pants or at least swimming shorts if he's going to playing outside even if it is WARM.
2. So your worried about a stranger seeing your naked brat on the internet, but you aren't worried about your neighbors. They could be pedophiles & guess what, you GAVE them a live show for free, IDIOT.
3. I bet you'll try to go after google & sue them, and in return, I hope google reports you & has you arrested for child neglect. YOUR KID SHOULD BE WEARING CLOTHES! You might as well have put him on the side of the road with a "FREE" sign hanging around his neck.
Some people are just so stupid!

@49: Yup. Your side of the pond isn't looking so hot right now either, it has to be said.
51. Ben - July 1, 2010 1:06 PM
Here's an idea you stupid limey cow, if you don't want people to see your naked baby don't let him leave the house without any clothes on. It's funny that you're so outraged that Google captured the image and not embarrassed as hell that you let your SON OUTSIDE NAKED. Call me a cynic, but I suspect her outrage has more to do with the fact that Google is a wealthy corporation and she smells a lawsuit.
52. The Facts - July 1, 2010 1:30 PM
Actually if Japan hadn't attacked Pearl Harbor when they did America wouldn't have gotten involved until the Germans were on the doorstep. The only reason that America 'won the war' is because they hadn't been fighting for years before so they had an economy that could turn into a war machine when need be. Realistically if America had tried to 'stay neutral which wouldn't have happened after Germany and Japan had conquered Europe and Asia America would have been next and they would have fallen just as quickly, if not quicker being hit from two sides at once. In addition, the American Economy is crap now thanks to both Bush and Obama, if anything the current economy resembles Greece more than GB. And the true English language is what the British speak, the Americans speak a bastardized version of it with bits and pieces of other European languages thrown in for good measure.
That said, i agree with what others have said. If you don't want your son's picture taken, don't let him run around naked. No one else lets their kid run around naked because they know that it is indecent.
53. Shelbon - July 1, 2010 1:42 PM
@ pretty much the last half of the commenters. You're all retarded because being born in a specific location is not a choice babies make. Your parents decided to live somewhere and then they had you. Stop trying to defend a country that has nothing to do with you. This is the same lack of logic the fuels sports fans to hate other teams and cities becuase they oppose their favorite team, and typically their team is decided by wear you live...make no sense so STFU!!! NO ONE CARES WHERE YOU LIVE!!!

@24
actually good sir, the English language was bastardised (with an S not a Z) by yanks who struggle to pronounce words correctly and then ended up spreading their version around the globe... yes, you dumbed it down.
Aluminium... does not, in any way, sound like ALUMINUM...
Paedophile is not PEDophile (pronounce pee-do-file, not PED)...
colour not color...
aeroplane... not airplane...
licence not license
organise not organiZe
centre not center...
the clue is also hidden within the name of the language... ENGLISH...
So unfortunately old chap, it would appear it is you with the 'weird' spelling...
58. The Sero - July 1, 2010 5:48 PM
Yeah, because it wouldn't be completely unfeasible to check every single shot.... >.<
Seriously, wtf! If you care so much, don't let him outside nude in the first place? It's not like it was a hassle getting it blurred!

And @ 57, right on! :D
60. The Sero - July 1, 2010 5:50 PM

Although one could argue that many (such as the last, centre) is a rip and often bastardisation of the original French (or sometimes German...).
61. Trek Girl - July 1, 2010 5:54 PM
I understand why she wouldn't want a picture of her son on the internet, whether he's clothed or not, but I find it odd that she would be ok with having her child play naked right where anyone passing by could see him. I was also under the impression that pictures could be removed by Google Streetview if someone filed a complaint, but maybe not.
To the people commenting on this story that started an argument over the English Language, especially the ones that are bashing the type of English that Americans speak - GET OVER YOURSELVES! I suggest you guys look up the history of the English Language because it is clear that you do not know it now. I understand you may not like America or the type of English we speak, but many of you are acting like this "true English" you keep speaking of isn't itself a mix of different languages. Go to Wikipedia and search "History of the English Language" and find out about what English really is and how it developed and stop spitting all of this venom about how stupid Americans are or about how weird the spelling is in England. The whole argument is stupid.
62. St George - July 1, 2010 5:59 PM
@ 60
shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
lol good point, but then we accept we are speaking a different language that derives from a mixture of others... the americans just speak American English
although I did hear an interesting thing about how it was by a small percentage of votes that meant the American language was English instead of German...

63. Fact must mean something else in England - July 1, 2010 6:09 PM
@52, That's the dumbest thing to come out of an Englishman's mouth since Neville Chamberlain told us we would have "peace for our time" just before the Germans turned most of Europe into a smoking crater. The US wouldn't have had to fight in Europe in the first place if the British and French did something about Hitler when they had the chance. Instead they tried to appease him until when they finally did fight, they had their collective asses handed to them and were kicked out of Continental Europe in just under two months. If the United States had not supported our English friends when we did you and I wouldn't be having this discussion now because I don't speak German. As for your comments about the economy, I'm not sure how what measure you're using to compare the US, Greece and the UK, but last time I checked even given the recession, the US GDP is 7 times that of the UK and Greece combined.
Take a little time out of your trolling career and read a book once in a while, you drooling ignoramus.

I spent 3 weeks masturbating in my car alongside the Google Street Viewer until I got one decent shot on their website.
Still haven't seen anyone mention it yet. Oh well....

69. gypsy - July 3, 2010 10:16 AM
well, i was TRYING to be sympathetic and think even though her child is a little old to run around naked and even though he's in the front yard instead of in the house naked and. . .wait a second--it was a hot day? why is that guy in the picture wearing long sleeves, then? hmm. maybe someone should just put pants on their child?
70. Rich - July 22, 2010 2:14 PM
Ah... the spelling wars.
Actually, IIRC It's not AMERICANS that changed the spelling, but that New Englander Noah Webster, who like most New Englanders of his time, thought they should be the ones who determine what a right American should be like, or something to that effect. It's Yankees. Before the War of Northern Aggression, my forebears were educated with something more akin to the Oxford dictionary when it comes to orthography. Then, of course, when the Yankees conquered us, they spread their orthographic fascism to the whole country. So as a denizen of Dixie, I try not to be too 'Americanised'.... plays hell with my spell checker, though.
Back to topic: Don't let your damn son run around nekkid in the damn front yard if you don't want it to be a damn public spectacle....
