... and "recognized that it was also capturing new road geometry not
previously mapped.[...]"

And later the article says:
"[...] Essentially, TomTom users are acting as probes on the street
network collecting a vast amount of data that now equals twice the
entire road network of Europe every 24 hours according to Mr. Desmet. He
believes this is a unique service that TomTom provides to users."

Unbelievable, people doing the data collection job for TomTom and they
call it a service. And they even don't own the data they collect ... not
even talking about privacy.

Sorry for English in the Japanese list ...
