You absolutely still have control over your own stuff, but now's a good time to check what you've been sharing
Google recently started making some photos that you've posted publicly to Google+ visible in Google Maps as well, as evidenced by the notification we all got in Google+. That's not in and of itself a bad thing, nor is it an invasion of privacy. In order for an image to appear automatically in Google Maps, it has to meet four criteria as set by Google and enacted by you:
- A photo must be public
- A photo must have a location associated with it
- A photo must be in a public album on your Google+, with the "Show location" setting checked
- A photo must adhere to Google's content policies
So Google Maps is only getting pics that you shared publicly in the first place, with location attached. Not evil, even if it does raise eyebrows for at least a few seconds.
