On the verge of posterity.

Highlighted by the Best of Google maps Twitter account and spotted by our colleagues from

La Voix du Nord

, the photo of a police officer in Roubaix is ​​starting to thrill the internet.

The image shows an official gratifying with an obscene gesture the Google vehicle on rue Voltaire in Roubaix.

Would this image fall under article 24 of the Global Security bill?

The photo, posted on the Google street view site, shows a police officer in a situation that could affect his psychological integrity.

The agent, a passenger in a screen-printed administrative vehicle, ostensibly raises the middle fingers with both hands for the

Google car

.

Basically, he gives the web giant a double middle finger.

A photo that dates back to August 2019

If the image was revealed on November 12, the shooting dates back to August 2019. In the meantime, the Google car passed through the same street again, this time without a police vehicle, and the site has been updated.

However, the photo of the indelicate official is still visible going back in time thanks to the Google tool.

Luckily for Google, the Global Security Act does not provide for retroactively sanctioning the authors of police photos.

In any case, the official's face as well as the vehicle's number plate were blurred.
