To be able to keep somebody from going to a registry and paying $10 to find out the person's name and address? Yes, the license plate is viewable in public; but that is out in the real world. Online you could have somebody trying to get revenge for something posted. A picture can be tied to an account for a very long time; or possibly forever.
