This is personal tax information. Anyone with a full version of Acrobat, Adobe Illustrator, or Pitstop could simply remove the box. This could, of course, be overcome by adding security to the document. But picture a 1040 tax form with colored blocks...it probably wouldn't look like part of the design. And, yes, the text could be blocked out in Photoshop, and saved as a Photoshop PDF. The file size would get significantly larger, however.
