Provide a short answer to each of these questions.Be sure to fully explain your answer.
Consider an anecdote of a woman renting a car in California and being charged a large penalty because she drove out of state.The rental car company had tracked her locales through a global positioning system (GPS),allegedly without telling the woman that they would be doing so.Apparently the woman was upset because she was not told about the GPS.Is the failure to tell her the main issue?
Informing a customer that she will be tracked through GPS is certainly an important component of this scenario.Because the company owns the automobile,which,by its nature,is an asset susceptible to damage,breakdown,theft,or simply getting lost,it seems reasonable for the firm to install GPS in its cars.Likewise,because cars have a limited useful life dependent,in part,on the length they are driven (not to mention that mileage is one of the factors used to determine the amount of charges),it seems reasonable to install GPS.However,is it reasonable to track the movements of a renter without telling her that you will be doing so? It seems only fair for the company to inform its renters that it will be using GPS.
