Why Is Google Street View Blurring The Faces On Philadelphia’s Murals?

“Of a random sampling of 30 Philly murals that included people, about three-quarters had some degree of facial blurring applied in Street View.” Why? According to a Google spokesperson, the technology that blurs the faces of actual people in Street View images “may be a little overzealous, likely because some of the faces appeared so life-like.” – The Philadelphia Inquirer
