Image is European but I'm pretty sure here in California trying to obscure your plate is illegal. Though I'm not sure what actually counts against it, since I know a couple of people with those bullshit plastic films that claim to obscure your plate from traffic cams but not from people looking at it.
They don't actually work, but I feel like the intent behind using them could get you in trouble.
I'd be more worried that this could count as some form of cybercrime.
I made a joke elsewhere about Amazon's search thing using AI to generate a string that would crash the Amazon server and thought about that too afterward. If that actually worked, could someone be charged with a crime?
Id guess maybe, if I generated a string using AI and intentionally crashed their stuff, it might be crime.
