Google Maps is the most popular navigation tool on the internet, making it easy to find where you’re going, including the street view feature that gives you a look at the address. While this can be handy for finding parking at a business, it also means your front door, yard or driveway is likely visible to anyone who searches for your address.
If that makes you uneasy, you’re not alone. Having your home so easily accessible online can raise real privacy concerns, especially if you’d rather keep your personal space off-limits.
The good news is that Google gives you a way to blur your home on Street View. Here’s how to do it and reduce how much of your home is visible online.
