Here’s one of those infamous far right, noise polluting nationalist black vans caught in action on the Japanese Google Street View (which had captured many odd private moments, like couples entering love hotels, middle-aged man pissing on the street, a man exiting a blow job joint, site of recent car accident, all of which have been deleted by request from some people. With Japanese streets often being very narrow, the Street View service in Japan seems more invasive of privacy than in the US.)

グーグルのトイレ
Posted by japanstats on 2008 August 15日 Friday
どうやらカリフォルニア州Mountain View 市にあるグーグル本社のトイレは、Toto 製のウォシュレットらしい。
日本の会社では当たり前の事だが、海外ではウォシュレットの存在自体が珍しいので、会社のトイレがウォシュレットだなんて超ゴージャスって事なんです。さすが世界のグーグル、そしてToto てとこですか。

Google Maps expanded its Street View service to Japan this past week, the images seem to be mostly shot earlier this year as you can see cherry blossoms in some shots. The most hilarious image captured of an elementary school girl giving the smack down to her male classmate, though, has been deleted by google, but here’s the image:
You can find the rest of the funny, strange, and amazing street view images captured in this street view blog (Japanese).
