IANAL, but from what I understand from my civics education, in the US there is no guarantee of privacy when in a public space, and the government owns the highways and owns the licensure of drivers and vehicles on those highways.<p>The government also owns the sidewalks, parks, waterways, the airspace, the RF airwaves, and other public land. As such, it can monitor and enforce the acceptable use of this property.<p>The US government also claims the right to surveillance on private land (up to the house) as defined in Open Fields ruling of 1924.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.agweb.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;business&#x2F;farmland&#x2F;unbounded-government-claims-right-access-and-surveillance-all-private-land" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.agweb.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;business&#x2F;farmland&#x2F;unbounded-gover...</a><p>In addition, the freedom to take photographs of anyone at any time in public (and on public space) is allowed.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aclusocal.org&#x2F;en&#x2F;photographers-rights" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.aclusocal.org&#x2F;en&#x2F;photographers-rights</a><p>The government does not own the Internet, and the US government handed over control in 2016.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.businessinsider.com&#x2F;the-us-government-no-longer-controls-the-internet-2016-10" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.businessinsider.com&#x2F;the-us-government-no-longer-...</a><p>Some surveillance on the Internet is legal&#x2F;allowable.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.privacyaffairs.com&#x2F;internet-surveillance&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.privacyaffairs.com&#x2F;internet-surveillance&#x2F;</a><p>Anyone want to add to this list or critique?

How is it secret? they record all tags and bill you automatically... I dont even know why they asked you to buy a sunpass device (not sure if it&#x27;s still required)... They probably also record your TPMS (tire pressure sensors).
