When you attach the smartphone to the front window of your car or on the bar of a bicycle, there is not much aiming involved. The apps keep on taking pictures. The pictures that are taken do not contain blurred sections, only the ones you can access via the website. On Mapillary, you can indicate which areas you want to be blurred besides the automatically detected areas, and deblur pieces that should not be blurred. As they keep the original photo without any blurs somewhere on their servers, that should not be a problem. No TV magic involved.
Since I prefer full access to the original pictures that I have taken, I prefer the digital reflex approach. But for destination signs on motorways and other main roads, OSC/Mapillary might be the only way to catch those images. m.
