YouTube Introduces Face Blurring Feature To Provide Anonymity

YouTube Face Blurring

Yesterday YouTube launched a new feature that allows users to blur all faces in a video before uploading it. The feature is intended to provide anonymity in news or human rights videos recorded in dangerous political environments. It can also be used to ensure the privacy of video subjects for whatever reason. The “Blur All Faces” option can be found in the Video Enhancements tool.
