License plates are public property.

  But are not public knowledge except to insurance companies and police departments (and probably a ton of companies that have bought the info as well on the gray market). As a private citizen, I can't just legally look up a license plate and get an owner and address due to data privacy laws.

  In Canada, video footage that personally identifies me is considered personal information. This includes the license plate number.
