They could also be an employee by day and a criminal by night. No system is perfect. Here in Canada, you can file a request for info on a license plate with the MTO. It will give you a postal code, but not a complete address. The good news is, they have to give their own personal info in order to get yours. I was able to find a photo of a car with an exposed license plate and run a lookup on a 3rd party site in less than 5 minutes.
Admittedly, most of these lookup websites are scams. This info is likely outdated and applies to a previous owner of the vehicle. However, hiring a licensed investigator for a low fee should return plenty of current, private info. Blurring a license plate in Photoshop is quick and easy. This is a common argument, but there is a difference. The chances of a potential troublemaker remembering your license plate along with all the details and modifications on your car are pretty slim.
In contrast, the internet is permanent. People can go back and reference the photo as many times as they want. A thief can pay close attention to all of the sellable parts on your car as well as check out what other vehicles might be in your garage. A random series of letters and numbers is hard to remember. It literally takes a few seconds in Photoshop. Most of us lock our houses when we leave.
Of course not. All we can do is try to make their job harder and blurring your license plates is one way to do that. The opposite is true if you blur it. Who knows, going the extra mile might make them choose you for a paid photoshoot! That increases the chances of it falling into the wrong hands in a big way.
Is also not true because people have all the time they need to take pictures of your car and plates everytime you are parked at a shopping mall or elsewhere. Blurring a plate is pointless. The only thing a plate run through the NCIC National Criminal Information Computer reveals about you is your name, address, the kind of car that plate is registered to, and if your registration is current.
Not exactly world ending information, and information that can be found out about you a million and one other, much easier ways. Quit being so paranoid. Stop living in constant fear! Live your life already!!! Thank you for the article. Never thought of this.
As note.. It is a description of a psychiatric diagnosis which is very difficult to live with if one is afflicted. Perhaps you could change the wording. Thanks for pointing that out, Ann.
