Here, you can pay for parking with coins, credit/debi card or phone app. P of choices. )

We just got paying with a phone app for parking meters here in my city.
Then shortly after they were installed there was a "controversy"
because the data for the app was bring processed/stored in the US.

I don't usually park anywhere that required me to pay & if I do I keep some spare change in my car for just such an occasion. It's usually cheaper to drop a couple of coins in the machine than paying with the
app anyway.

US company? They'll probably take away your abilit to pay for parking because of a Tweet you made they didn't like.
