That pic you posted of a vehicle being pulled over, prominently displaying their license plate............

Not the smartest thing I've ever seen. If the owner of that vechicle ever got wind of this, I'm sure a complaint would be filed. Not too bright.

Considering that the license plate is prominently displayed in public 24/7 while their car is outside, I don't see how it's that big of a deal.

This is the single most hilarious and idiotic post I've read during my short tenure here at MR. As the poster above said, the tag is "prominently displayed" 24-7 in public, so what is there to be alarmed or offended about? Not too bright.

I have to agree with mikahopity - do you remember the outbreak of complaints after Google introduced street view? Most memorably the one woman that was furious that her cat could be seen in her apartment window. I think that it was ridiculous, but it is reality.

I have been working in some sensitive environments for about a decade, and I have some really cool pictures of it. However, I would never risk posting them online. It just isn't a good career move, whether it is actually illegal / punishable or not.
 
I have an iPod touch and I'm looking into buying an iPhone as well. I was wondering... in camera mode if you turn the iPhone does it recognize that and make it verrtical or no?

Yes. See post#509. There are in pics in landscape and portrait.

It's not the fact that he posted a license plate number that's "prominently displayed 24/7" that I am taking issue with. That's fine. If someone takes a picture in a supermarket parking lot and gets 50 license plates in it, I don't expect them to blur out each one before posting it online.

However, this picture was taken while someone was being pulled over for (presumably) a traffic offense of some kind. I'm pretty sure that an officer who pulls someone over does not have the right to snap photos and share them with their friends (either in person or online).

At minimum, this shows a complete lack of ethics as it pertains to his job as a public servant. And as I stated in my original post, I’m pretty sure that if the owner of that vehicle saw it and complained to his supervisors, he would be disciplined in some regard. This fact makes it “not very smart” to post something that can get you in trouble.

I removed the photo. Not sure what the big deal is. There are lots of photos on here with tag numbers but because of where I was sitting made it bad???

Had I been walking and took this picture then no harm no fowl then???

Sorry it offended you.
