Google maps obviously photographs Boro-Park on Shabbos
Below is the street view of 13th Avenue and 50th Street in Boro-Park from Google Maps. The empty scene at this otherwise congested intersection is an occurrence that takes place only during Shabbos.
Comments:
It's also an "occurrence" that takes place at 6:00 A.M. on a summer morning.
If you want more evidence that it was Shabbos, look up 4912 13th Avenue and pan around.
There are two different men shown. See how they dress.

....and since Google is a public company, and many Jews own stock in it, and Boro Park is a Jewish Community, therefore, we should all boycott Google, or boycott 13th Avenue? or maybe both!!
if u look at the other suroundig areas u"ll see that its takin on sukkos u" c lots of sukkos all over
Nah, if it were Shabbos you would see people walking. Google Maps photographs streets just after dawn when most people are sleeping and the streets are empty. (It might also have been Shabbos, but only coincidentally.)
Who Cares? Besides they could never get it done any other day cause of the triple-parking.
[I agree with comment #2 about the boycott. Any store with a heimish hasgocho must cover the front with a tarp before shabbos to avoid this, this, trying to find the right word here, UNSPEAKABLE OUTRAGE]

It makes sense for google to take photos on a saturday. This way the streets are less crowded and more pictures can be taken in less time with less obstruction by other cars or vehicles. And it is not just Boro Park, I believe it is everywhere.
