What is the point of censoring your license plate?

[Roysneon]

It's a moot point. Hundreds of people see your plate every day in real life.

real life, huh...Never heard of that board...

The only legitimate reason, for me, is insurance reasons. Insurance companies sometimes look around for pictures of cars insured with them being used outside their legal uses(i.e., track days, rally etc).

I told my agent to go fuck himself yesterday, Id prolly just say it again

This is stupid, I've heard of some locals PMing others, to remove random posted pictures, so to delete their lic/plates.

You really gotta be doing illegal shit, to worry about petty shit like that., if anyone wants to find my car, they can come look for it but........, you better bring a special vest, cause I'm not playing roll model and calling the cops, till after I've had my way.

Paranoia is funny. I have friends that trip out if they are in pictures on someone's account in Facebook. "You have a picture of me holding a beer!"
Yup. Quit drinking it if you don't want it to be known. And who are you? Why do you think someone would be out to "get" you? Are you really someone who's way more important than everybody else? Or are you on witness protection? Really?
Some of them are weird.

Well hello thar!

I'm obviously for the not censoring option. So many pics of my plate get taken anyways it wouldn't matter if I censored it.
