Denials Over Google Street View via the New York Times reports on some of the Google Street View engineers declarations when it came to the Wifi data collection done by Google’s Street View project.
Reading those declarations you see engineers stating “it was not part of my duties” to review that aspect of the project. You have others saying that they had “no recollection of reviewing the Wi-Fi project design document.” Another engineer said, “I am aware there was a design document prepared for the Wi-Fi collection, but I do not recall reading it.”
