The device of claim 1, wherein the communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy further includes: a communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy and receivable by an anonymization indicator located at a location physically removed from the anonymization module. 9. The device of claim 1, wherein the communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy further includes: a communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy and receivable by a remotely located anonymization indicator that is coupled with an image capture system operable to capture and transmit the image. 10. The device of claim 1, wherein the communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy further includes: a communications module operable to send a signal indicative of the anonymization policy and to receive the image depicting a subject. 11. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a selector module operable to designate the anonymization policy. 12. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies. 13. The device of claim 12, wherein the selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies further includes: a selector module operable to implement the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies. 14. The device of claim 12, wherein the selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies further includes: a selector module operable to designate the anonymization policy in response to at least one of a received human input, a selection received from an anonymization controller, and/or a selection algorithm. 15. The device of claim 12, wherein the selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies further includes: a selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from a library of at least two anonymization policies. 16. The device of claim 12, wherein the selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies further includes: a selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies, the selected policy persisting as the selected policy for a time. 17. The device of claim 1, wherein the anonymization module further includes a selector module operable to designate the anonymization policy. 18. The device of claim 1, wherein the anonymization module further includes a selector module operable to choose the anonymization policy from at least two anonymization policies. 19. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a digital storage media configurable by the anonymized image. 20. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a computing device. 21. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a computing device that includes the anonymization module. 22. A method comprising: obscuring a property of a subject depicted in a received image in response to a privacy policy;anddisplaying an indication of the privacy policy perceivable by a human proximate to the subject and prior to a capture of the received image; andsending a signal indicative of the privacy policy to at least a human-perceivable display. 23. The method of claim 22, wherein the obscuring a property of a subject depicted in a received image in response to a privacy policy further includes: obscuring a person, article, object, face, license plate, and/or label of a subject depicted in a received image in response to a privacy policy. 24.
