How to Blur Your House in Google Maps

2/26/2015

Sometimes we want to protect our privacy from lurkers. While there is no way to keep your address off of Google Maps, you can get Google to blur out your property so Google Maps users will not see it. Here’s the process which is outlined at Google.

How to get your property blurred:
·         Go to Google Maps and type in your address
·         Bring up the street view of your property
·         Look to the bottom right hand corner of the screen you should see an Icon Labeled: “report a problem.”
·         Click on “report a problem.”
·         You will get a page labeled “report inappropriate street view.”
·         Adjust the image so your house is inside the red box.
·         Fill out the form
·         Type the verification code at the bottom of the page into the box provided and click submit.
·         Check back in a few days to see if the image has been blurred.
