Abstract:
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for obfuscating location data associated with a physical environment. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining, via an environmental sensor, environmental data corresponding to a physical environment. A first portion of the environmental data that corresponds to a first location is identified. In response to the first location being of a first location type, location data indicative of the first location is obfuscated from the environmental data by modifying the first portion of the environmental data.
