What should I "redact" when documenting install on forum?

My solar glass roof install is finally starting - yay. Inspired by what @jboy210 did here and what others have done on the forum, I'm planning on posting about my experience. I was wondering what others think should be redacted from posted information, photos, and videos. I didn't think much about this when I created my account name and I'm not too worried about others figuring out who I am or where I live - but maybe that is a naive perspective?

I would remove things like your name, address, and phone number from any documents that you post. And maybe anything that obviously identifies you in any pictures or videos that you post. But for the most part I wouldn’t worry about pictures of your house or things like that.

Apart from above suggestions you can always shoot your photos and/or crop them showing mostly the roof since that is the job. Just use a critical eye doing both.

The plans that Tesla prepares do have language on them about who they are for (so shouldn’t be posted). We had solar/PWs installed but assume this would be true if solar roof as well. As for the teams I would ask.
