Blurry plates?
 
Why is it important to blur out your license plate when posting a pic of your car on the net?

are people afraid of that crazy guy with a friend that works at the DMV and will hunt you down and kill you for no reason?

Just curious. because if that is the fear I'm not sure I should be driving around town in public with my plates showing.

Actually, you don't have to work at the DMV or for some law agency to get this info. Theres a few pay sites around that let you search names and plates. Personally, I wouldn't want to let random strangers know what I have under the hood especially once I mod the exterior and my car is easier to spot.

Because I'm a heartless troll that shoots my mouth off on here regularly, lol, I want to hide behind the illusion of anonymity to avoid vandalism. :bowrofl:

most people i shoot for say "i don't care", especially if they have personalized plates. the ferrari i shot recently had a transporter tag on it so i cloned out the digits because they asked me to. most people don't care (myself included)

yeah seems a little far fetched to think that someone will make the connection to web pics and my car in the real world. even if they did and decided that they wanted to break in couldnt they just write down my plate # when i drive by?

exactly why most people don't care that much

shadoquad 02-08-2011 02:32 PM

I care. It's silly, but it's a paranoid thing. Besides, it doesn't really take away from the photos, imo. When I get vanity plates, I'll stop doing it.
