A better example might be that you were shouting your license plate number out to a crowded street. Would I then be prevented from writing down (collecting) the number that you were shouting?

How would you comply with article 13? Would you walk over to me and give me your contact details as required by ¶1(a), the purpose of your collection ¶1(c), the length of time you will keep the data ¶2.(a), and also informing me of my right to erasure ¶2(c)?

What if I shouted my plate number from a moving car & you were only able to write it down before I was gone? How are you going to comply with article 13? Are you going to get in a faster car & chase me down to shout back all that information about you as a data controller?

Also, which article 6¶1 rationale do you think makes your collection lawful?

Google & Apple may or may not have the contact details of those whose WiFi data they collect but I certainly have never received an article 13 compliant notice from Google or Apple (neither of whom I have contracts with).
