In case you ever wanted to blur your house from google street view you can. A little privacy i suppose, its pretty easy. you dont need a reason to do it. This probaly the only thing google lets opt out of which is cool.

One blurred house among many unblurred houses will attract attention toward the house.

A blurred house in a row of unblurred ones would attract more attention.
