Sometimes, TV shows censor people's faces with pixels that hide the details, I am wondering if there's a noun for that, because I am trying to say something in an idiomatic way, but I find it hard without being able to refer to it.
For example, look at this sentence:
They removed the censored part, thereby showing the face of the
person who decided to speak in anonymity.
Censored part sounds odd in this context, so is there a better alternative?

When it's done as pixels, we use pixelated and pixelation.
You can write:
- They removed the pixelation, thereby showing the face of the person who decided to speak in anonymity.
Wikipedia gives "pixelization", but pixelate appears more common.
Many will write "pixelated" even when it would be more correct to use another word (eg I News referring to a blurred image as "pixelated"):
blurred out (if the image is made blurry)
blacked out (made black)
blanked out (made black or white)- blocked out
So you can have
- They removed the blurring, thereby showing the face ...
If it is actually censorship and not privacy, you can also write
- The removed the censoring/censorship, thereby showing the offensive symbol
Very occasionally you see redaction bar Guardian which would be appropriate for both privacy and censorship. You could certainly write
- They removed the redaction, thereby showing the face ...
