Do you mean that small blue spot? If you'll look around Antarctica, you'll see lots of blue patches, which are dips and creases in the ice. There must be a "real name" for this, but my amateurish interpretation will do for now. If that color or shape denotes censorship, there certainly is a lot of it scattered around the continent!

I mean this blurred region:

Yes. And possibly other ones hide something else  Antarctica is very enigmatic place.
Anyhow, cenzored objects really exist in GE, you may use search to find much of them.

BTW, here's another interesting place: 70° 9'56.86" S 87°49'6.39" E
Looks like the hi-res rectangle was cut and overlayed with low-res pice.

Aha - I see the problem. If you click your map link, you'll see what I mean. Yes, I have seen a lot of censorship posts - very interesting. I found one example myself in New York State , which led to a lot of discoveries by other members. There were NY power plants, perhaps censored after 9/11.
Your example has a lot of placemarks around it. It's the Norweigian Antarctic Base. I can't imagine why a scientific base would be censored, if that's what the blurry area is. An even more absurd example is the French-Italian Base:


The placemarks tell me that people have not been fooled. And the color alone screams "Here I am!" The other one you've pointed out - that is strange. Maybe Price Collins will weigh in on this one, because it could be an image anomaly. (See my link.)
