i recently encountered a town where the only option to pay was via some app that forced me to hand over my phone number and email address

This happened to me, right after I was finished I asked them to delete my data, they said they did, years later they mailed me to tell me my data was leaked.

Don't even need to be in a town, I parked in SF a garage. They had a sign saying the machine to avoid the app was on the lobby floor. The machine was nowhere to be found.
