Protect Privacy by Blurring Faces in a Photo or Video
Posted on September 20, 2012
For many families the start of school also means the start of fall
sports. At most games, parents are on the sidelines shooting videos or
taking pictures. Often these shots include not just their child but
faces of other kids as well. Before sharing online, people should ask
permission. But in a photo or video containing so many faces, this is an
impossible task. Thankfully, technology has come to the rescue.

For pictures, I use Obscuracam. Obscuracam is an app developed by the
Guardian Project. The Guardian Project originally envisioned this tool
to protect human rights activists. It is also works for parents who want
to protect the identity of their kids or friends online. As an added
bonus, Obscuracam removes all identifying metadata from the photo,
including location.

This app is quick and easy to use. First, it highlights the faces in the
photo. But if it misses a face, you can simply tap on the missed face to
select it. For fun instead of pixalating or redacting faces, you can add
a groucho mask.
