Google Street View cars capture images from public roads, which might include your home. If an image contains inappropriate content, or you prefer your home not be shown, you can request it to be blur

In case you ever wanted to blur your house from google street view you can. A little privacy i suppose, its pretty easy. you dont need a reason to do it. This probaly the only thing google lets opt out of which is cool.

    Thanks, but I’ll pass. Currently, it’s just a random house; but if I blurred it, it would stick out like a sore thumb and possibly attract attention.

    It is; I would be mindful that one blurred house on a street of unblurred houses probably creates more intrigue to anyone casually looking at that street.

      Not to mention go one click either direction on street view and gasp you can see the house.
