Google Street View in Europe

[2] The first views anywhere outside the United States were introduced on July 2, 2008, when the Tour de France route was added.

Nineteen camera icons, each indicating part of a French city or town and Cuneo, Italy, were included.

On October 14, 2008, camera icons were introduced in six French cities, Lille, Lyon, Marseille, Nice, Paris and Toulouse.

[61] In November 2010, a British watchdog group said that Google broke the law by obtaining personal data from people.

In April 2013 Google was fined €145,000 for illegally recording information from unsecured wireless networks in Germany.
