It is very natural that a car will have multiple owner during its life,

The "big deal" is that the federal courts ruled shops cannot release the data without permission, period. So regardless of anyone's opinion on the subject, it is what we have to deal with. This has even cost the shops money as we are now required to store all such data "in a secure location which complies with federal guidelines".
It is no different than a four lane, wide open roadway with a 25 MPH speed limit, you ignore it at your own peril...………...
