A woman has told of her horror after Google published a photograph of her young son naked on the internet.

Claire Rowlands, 25, was stunned to see the image of Louis mears playing on a sunny day in his grandmother's garden in Walkden, Greater Manchester.

Congratulations mom, it has now gone viral and is posted on every link site in the world. If no one noticed before, they will now.

Quote from the article:

Louis, three, had been snapped by Google's controversial 'camera car' as it took pictures of every road in Britain for the search engine's Street View service. The company blurred out the registration plate of a car on the drive of the house - but the image of Louis, who was wearing nothing but his shoes, was uncensored. In another image, taken seconds later, Louis's face was clearly identifiable, but his modesty was preserved by a fence. Shocked Claire, who lives on the same road as her mother, said she had no idea the pictures had been taken and accused Google of invading her son's privacy. 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.
