Technology Tip: YouTube now offers the feature of Face Blurring.


Technology Tip:

YouTube now offers the feature of Face Blurring. 


Lately, YouTube has become an incredible tool for people to share videos online, sometimes people share their funny moments and some videos play a very important role in a social moment or even a revolution. 

But again, there are people who do not upload videos because they do not have the ability to hide their identity by blurring out a part of the video. 

Currently there is no such service offered by any video sharing website or a manufacturer, YouTube is the first one to bring out this type of feature. 

This is an awesome tool because it will let you upload the controversial videos where you can blur out the faces of people you don’t want to show.  This gives the control of retaining the complete anonymity while spreading your message out. 

You can find the option of blurring out the faces under additional features in the enhancements section of the video editor of YouTube video manager.  It will show the original video and the other video shows the applied effects. (See Image above).  If you are satisfied with the output, you can delete the original video. 

Remember however, this is a new tool and might not work on all the videos as face recognition depends of the clarity of the video etc.
