Experts recommend homeowners blur their homes on Google Maps to maximize security against potential burglars. This simple action hampers criminals' ability to assess property layouts and security systems through online tools. Ryan Railsback from Riverside Police emphasizes the relevance of this tactic, urging homeowners to be proactive. Google allows homeowners to blur their residences through the 'Report a problem' feature on Street View, ensuring the visibility of homes is controlled. This preventive measure is a step towards reinforcing home security against evolving methods of crime.
The crooks are looking for new and innovative ways to victimise people, and it's good for the public to be aware and counter what the criminals are already doing.
To blur your home on your computer or smartphone, find it on Google Maps, open the Street View image that you want to blur, and click 'Report a problem'.
