KFC U.K. Colonel Sanders images blurred by Google
May 20, 2009
The Daily Telegraph (London): Google Street View has blurred the image of Colonel Sanders on all 760 KFC stores in the United Kingdom to 'protect his privacy.' Street View allows users to access 360-degree views of roads and homes in 25 British towns and cities and includes photographs of millions of residential addresses, people and cars, but is required to obscure people's faces. Sanders was determined to be 'a real person' — despite his passing away in December 1980 aged 90. KFC said the decision was "bizarre and odd."
