It is different because you typically need to know the municipality I live in first.
Also the registration allows anyone to track me anytime I fly.
How would you feel if you had a public gps transponder on your car publicly showing who you, where you are, and where you live? Also what if you are required to plaster that registration number on the side of your vehicle in large letters that can be seen from a block away?
It’s a massive invasion of personal privacy.

Buy a new car, you won’t be far from that.

The new car is worse. They will sell your info to the highest bidder.
