Fair enough, I'll add some nuance. The government that I am a citizen of is a special case of a non-human entity, they do have entitlement to my property (which includes my attention).

Traffic signs put up by my government are different than billboards put up by a company. The former is to protect me, the latter is to exploit me.

What about a private company that puts up a parking charge sign?
