Is there a law anywhere about publishing VIN numbers?
It's a Federal requirement for the VIN to be prominently displayed on the vehicle (hence the move from the door pillar to the top of the instrument panel in the 70's).

In fact, we have to build in features so the VIN cannot be obscured, such as a bump to prevent slipping an index card between the VIN tag and the IP dash pad.
