Pixelate / Blur Image

What's safest for redaction

• Solid black bar — strongest, irreversible
• Heavy pixelate (20+ px) — visually obvious, practically irreversible
• Light pixelate (under 10 px) — risky; AI face / plate recognition can sometimes reconstruct
• Blur (any strength) — least secure; deconvolution algorithms can partially reverse it

When to use this

• Screenshots with sensitive UI — emails, IDs, banking
• Photos with bystanders — pixelate faces before posting
• License plates in shared car / travel photos
• Documents for examples — keep layout, redact actual data
