But posting cell numbers, names, social media accounts is fair game? So cars are the one thing the OT considers sacred??
A cell number, social media account, online alias will not allow someone to obtain my home address, my license plate number can.

How so?
Only if you have access to a national DMV database?

Product placement revenue. If you don't pay the producers, they aren't going to display your logo. Whoever pays gets unredacted.
They also do it to avoid lawsuits. It can get dicey when trademarked logos appear. NBC got sued over a show where someones hand got messed up in a garbage disposal because the brand name stamped on it was visible.

Not blocked out for you, op. Saw this average car on my way home one day.

Folks do the same with gun serial numbers. They say they have a 1947 Saginaw .30 caliber serial no. 349xxx.
It’s not like you can plug a serial number in a database and find out who owns the gun.

Again, I’m not taking about your OWN information. I’m talking about a stranger that you post for various reasons

Does anyone do this?
And if so, are they the same people blocking their license plate?
This is a weird thread.
