You can't identify the owner of the car based off of the license plate. The serial number of the Pi is also on the outside, on the packaging. That enables access to this information to a whole lot more people, and adds numerous ways of how this information can be linked back to you.

The govt definitely can identify the owner of the car based on the license plate.
