Mom Can't Contain Herself After Seeing Something Hilarious On Google Street View!

Google Street View captures a lot of funny moments as the van drives down different roads around the world. Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you’ll wind up caught on camera and will be able to see yourself online. Of course, no one will know it’s you, since your face will be blurred out to protect your privacy!

Madelyn Rotella went onto Google Street View to see how her home looked since the Google van had just only passed by their neighborhood and updated their images.

What she saw wasn’t herself in the application – instead, she saw Legend, her pup, sitting out on their front yard!

Hilariously, Google’s respect of privacy goes beyond humans, as they decided to blur our Legend’s face in the images! Even more funnily, this isn’t unusual. Google blurs out just about any living creatures face, including cows – something they went viral for back in 2015. This practice began in 2008, when they automatically made sure that potentially identifiable facial features were carefully concealed. Apparently, this involves animals, too.

Rotella shared the blurry image on her Facebook profile, and before long, it had been shared thousands and thousands of times, with more than 33,000 likes. Since Legend loves being outdoors, it’s no surprise that he was just in the right place when the van passed by during the summer.

Thanks to his very long leash, Legend can go pretty much anywhere throughout the yard safely, and he just loves sunbathing.

It’s good to know that he can enjoy all these things without worrying about his privacy being invaded!
