Re: URIs / URLs

Right.
But you would use an identifier for the car, 
and a location on the network of the computer 
that handles this information.
If you want you can also give an identifier 
to this computer, or a software on it.

Does that make any sense to you?

Anyway, now we've got also the anti-theft URI   :-)
