> Google threatens to destroy not only pop sensation Adele, but Britain's film and music industries. So why is No.10 in thrall to this parasitic monster?

> I certainly can't speak for Google, but I've seen no indication whatsoever that it has no respect for private property. But taking  photographs from public roads is not a violation of private property. And, I'm sorry, but it's simply impossible to take the Daily  Mail seriously on a claim that taking photos in public is a violation of private property, when it has front page stories that show a woman's see-through top with a headline screaming about how you can see her breasts. Or this article, highlighting some rich young woman with photographs of her in a bikini while vacationing at a private hotel. I would suggest that those are a lot more about violating someone's privacy than a photo of a castle.
