My neighbors did it because their garage was open when the picture was taken. They did not want people to know what was there.

I feel sorry for anyone who has to live next to these monstrosities. There is one at the corner of our block and it was hard to sell. One renter after another and it became a bit overgrown.

I do occasionally browse through Google street views as a way to kill a little down time at work. I like to pick a random city and random neighborhoods just to get a sense of the place and will say it is less than 1/100 houses that is blurred out. It's really not common. The PP who claimed seven houses on her street is blurred out, never seen anything like that. It's more like one house in an entire subdivision or neighborhood. And you assume it's owned by a weird old man who snarls at any kid who gets within a few feet of his precious lawn, which is actually overgrown and a semi thicket. Or someone with a suspicious home business in the basement involving a lot of computer monitors and mysterious small packages.


You have an active imagination, pp.

Whenever I see a blurred out house I assume criminals think the house has something of value worth hiding.

Harry and Meghan?

One of my neighbors is a top secret spook and the address and house images are missing off the internet.
