A court ruled that a man’s privacy was violated when Google Street View captured his naked back within his home’s fenced yard in 2017.

The image was taken despite the presence of a wall over 6 1/2 feet high shielding his property in a small Argentine town.

Google was ordered to pay about $12,500 in damages for infringing the man’s dignity through the unauthorized image.

Other companies involved were cleared of liability as they only highlighted Google’s mistake in this case.
