Every man for himself! Google Maps could expose you.

The most popular platform to search for addresses around the world has been the cause of the divorce of a couple in Peru, after a man found his wife with his lover through images from Street View on Google Maps.

The individual was only virtually navigating the Bridge of Sighs in Barranco, Peru, when he saw that his wife was sitting on a park bench with a man. His head was reclined and resting on the other person's lap.

Although both faces are blurred - a normal thing that Google does to protect the privacy of people who are captured by their robots - the husband quickly recognized his wife based on the outfit he was wearing and his physical characteristics.

The most curious thing is that the man was using the application to decide on a tourist destination to take his wife on vacation, according to the Peruvian newspaper La Crónica.

Although the photo was taken in 2013, and the image is still, the woman appears stroking the other man's hair.

The man at the center of the story chose to confront her until she admitted to cheating. The story ended in the couple's divorce.

Google Street View, which uses multi-lens cameras mounted on top of cars to capture all the perspectives of an assigned street, was created in 2007 and launched in 5 cities in the United States. It is now available to view roads in 80 countries.
