Default US photos, blanked plates, why?

is the reason license plates are blanked or morphed on photos here in case some passing cop uses something said against the poster?

(Question from UK)

Cheers

My take on this is that people didn't want anyone finding their license plate number or VIN on this board, getting their screen name and searching the board for things that could/would be held against them in a warranty claim. We all know that big brother is watching.
