Aussie Pranksters Vandalise Google Street View Camera

The New Zealand Google Maps penis vandals have been one-upped! Their phallic defacement was visible via satellite, yes, but these Australian pranksters drew a dick on a Street View camera lens, superimposing a penis over all of reality.

It looks like it was pulled off pretty easily — just the ol’ marker-drawn penis routine. But when it’s drawn on one of Google’s road mapping vehicles, the penis travels with you. The penis travels all over the Australian neighbourhood — gleaming in the sun, covering homes. I wonder how long it took before driver realised he was dragging a penis all over Australia? I wonder how long until the scenery will be replaced? Where will the Google South Pacific Penis Plague will spread next? A 3D Google Earth penile skyscraper in the middle of Fiji?

Maybe it is a cactus. [BuzzFeed]

    Sigh, on one hand I weep for the pathetic nature of the morons who would do this..

    On the other hand, I giggle at the (unintentional?) pun: “It looks like it was pulled off pretty easily”

    Free advertising for ABC?

    I agree with Joel, pretty pathetic prank.

        I hope you’re still laughing when someone vandalises YOUR car.

        There’s gags, there’s jokes, there’s off humour. None of them are excuses for property damage.

        Some kill for fun. Lolz abound.

    Once again proof of the theory that, given a blank canvas, someone will inevitably draw a penis on it…

    I’m not quite sure I can make it out, to be honest. I don’t doubt it’s intended to be one, but…

    I’m really not sure that’s a penis. Where is it said that it’s one, anyway? It just looks like a scribble to me.

    Wouldn’t have been surprised if the New Zealanders drew a sheep.

    Maybe they were just drawing hills in the background? Pretty sure it’s just hills in the background.

    Haha, good ‘ol Australia.

    We could have done something awesome, but we have to put up with this half-assed penis drawing.

    The ration in size between the beans and the frank are disturbing, either a seriously giant pair of cojones, or the artist draws phallic symbols to compensate for his depicted predicament.
