Kids, COPPA thinking, and video blur
Regulated ‘children’s content’ and everyday school assemblies differ legally, but both benefit from aggressive face blur when releases are broad.
Operational defaults
Blur faces in crowd pans by default; unmask only with documented consent.
Pair with tight cropping when blur might not survive aggressive recompression on platforms.
