The internet is a much larger audience with many more douchebags than your local population.Originally posted by: So
Why, when people take pics of their car, do they blur out the lisence plates? I mean, it's public info, and it's not like some random schmuck on the internet is worse than all the people who see it every day on the road...
Is there some reason I'm missing here?
paranoia about internet stalkers....for some, knowledge is power.
anonymity on the net is a great, comfortable thing to have.

Yeah, plus the people who see your plate every day are driving cars when they do and they also see hundreds others.
People who are looking at your car online are already sitting in front of a computer likely with nothing better to do because they're looking at pictures of cars on the internet

I have no idea what you're talking about, so I'm going to post a picture of my license plate.

So this is the real reason. I guess you guys have a point about there being a lot of douches on ATOT.
