No, this issue needs treating with common sense. If you obfuscate
(either because you need to as you've pointed out, or because you feel
like it), then the quality of the support you get may suffer. Not
usually deliberately, but as a result of confusion and potential
obfuscation typos.
This doesn't mean you shouldn't post. But a note saying 'sorry about
the obfuscation, I've no choice' will help avoid an unnecessary
side-conversation.
