Google street view blurs cow's face in Cambridge [View all]
A cow which had its face blurred by Google street view has proved a hit on social media.
The animal was snapped by Google's cameras at Coe Fen, Cambridge, and seemingly given the same treatment humans receive for privacy reasons.
A tweet by The Guardian's David Shariatmadari highlighting the sight was retweeted more than 9,000 times.
Google admitted its face-blurring technology had been "a little overzealous".
