      You understand that’s different right? If you’ve broken the rules then they’ve got a right to send you a fine.

      Wholesale selling of personal information is not what’s happening here.

      There’s no country in the world where you can skip tolls, travel tickets, entrance fees, and face no consequences.

        No problem with fining people who don’t follow local rules, especially traffic ones.

        The issue is that a private company is doing the job without proper oversight, at the expense of EU citizens’ rights. What’s next? Storing biometrical data of EU air travelers in data centers open to US spy agencies?

        But since Brexit everyone has well understood that playing by the rules and respecting their partners isn’t on UK’s agenda anymore.

          You seem very confused, private companies are always fining you. Parking companies are private companies, many public transport companies are private companies. The oversight is provided by the court. This has been the case before Brexit was even a consideration.
