Hello Folks, I've had this lingering question about showing license plates in online pictures. On a few occasions I've erased out the license plate, on other occasions I've just let it go. Is this really a risk? Can somebody use this info in a bad way? Is it a security or privacy issue really? And how would somebody use this info or do something with it? I really cannot think of how some bad guy would do something with the info. I guess if someone worked at the DMV they could look up my address (and get arrested), but so what, you can do that in other ways. Thanks! Roland |
