If you want privacy and you drive a car, I got bad news for you. Public Transit is privacy.
Transit card is linked to your credit card which is linked to your identity. Unless you pay cash and obtain a new cars/pass each time.
I use a virtual card for the metro system, and in some places, you can reload your card with cash. I don't think you even need to use your real name when getting a metro system pass
