| Government now has the right to track you using GPS |
| 2010-08-25 |
| Swell. They can come onto your private property, tag your car, and follow your every move. Their logic is that you do not have a right to privacy in your driveway or off your private property. Maybe they are right, since the government has been been staking out people for years to follow them from their home to see what they are up to. As far as I am concerned, they don't have a right to go onto my driveway, and they don't have a right to touch my car. Unless they don't mind the idea of me touching their car, that is.

| #14 As for "GPS", youse have probably UNKNOWINGLY = NON-CONSENSUALLY eaten andor swallowed "EDIBLE/CONSUMABLE" ADVANCED = NT MICRO-DEVICES already [months iff not years, decades ago. And in true MANO-A-MANO, "GO TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY" GUMPTION THEY DIDN'T TELL YOU, NOR EVEN TRIED TO TELL YOU, ABOUT IT, hence of course they're absolutely categorically undeniably, etc. as innocent as newborn Babes-Lambs. |

| #13 SOCIALIST-GOVTIST-TOTALITARIAN "UNIVERSAL SECURITY" = ONLY THE GOVT KNOWS, BUT NOT THE REST OF US??? The Govt absolutely positively categorically undeniably, ...........@etc. has Has HAS H-A-S HHHHHAAAAAAAAAASSSSS "HAS, HAS, YA KNOW spelled H-I-Z-Z, HAS" TO KNOW, D **** NG IT, WHERE THAT THAT MOLE OR TATTOO YOU GOT DURING YOUR TWEEN OR TEEN YEARS OR "SPRING BREAK", ETC. CAME FROM, BUT YOU + ONLY YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO KNOW THAT OF THE POTUS, GOVT ACCOUNTING, OR EVEN A LOWLY OFFICE CLERK-AIDE AS PER "NATIONAL SECURITY"??? |

| #12 Your Emails are already being covertly read widout yur knowledge or consent, + being monitoring you in public restrooms, etc. IFF YOU'RE LUCKY, THE ONLY NOTICE ONE SEES IS A BRIEF WINDOW POSTER BROADLY = SUBJECTIVELY INFORMING YOU THAT THE ENTIRE AREA IS UNDER "GENERAL" SECURITY WATCH/ MONITOR/SURVEILLANCE, whiel NOT specifically saying that they're also doing the above. WHATS STOPPING THEM FROM BEING MORE SPECIFIC - NOTHING EXCEPT THEMSELVES + FEAR OF PUBLIC BACKLASH IFF THEY KNEW. IMO iff the Govt is going to be covertly reading your PRIVATE EMAILS + WATCHING YOU USE THE RESTROOM, ETC, THEN IT SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY PROBS ALLOWING THE MAINSTREAM TO SEE THEIRS, CORRECT? FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT, "SUNSHIEN LAWS, ETC.??? |

| #11 I'm going to take a dump on his couch You might make your point better if you take a dump in his driveway instead. |

| #10 The government is too big for its britches. And I'm glad my car is in a garage. If some liberal ass-twat judge tells me I don't have a reasonable expectation of privacy in there, I'm going to take a dump on his couch since he shouldn't have a reasonable expectation of privacy in his own goddamn home. |

| #8 And driving is a hostile environment. Could get hit with a rock. A bump could make it fall off. Could get stolen and thrown in another vehicle. |

| #6 Are them GPS tracker-bug thingys expensive? PS: jamming GPS is not hard. In fact, it's sometimes way too easy. You just need a low-power signal on the right freq. |

| #5 This fills in a gap of "total surveillance". Cellphones now all have triangulation between towers, even if they are in passive mode or off. As well, there is even software on the Internet by which cellphone conversations can be monitored, and even a passive cellphone acts as a listening device to anyone who wants to listed to what you are saying in the area. But the problem is the minority of people who do not use or carry cellphones, nor have equivalent tracking devices in their vehicles. Outside of expensive satellite surveillance, they can gallivant all over the place while being "black", and the government won't otherwise be able to track them. After some furtive efforts to require auto manufacturers to have LoJack-style systems in all new cars, they settled for just being able to selectively target particular vehicles at will. No warrant necessary. Likewise, if you discover such a device on your vehicle, it is a criminal offense to remove or tamper with it, a law which has long been used against organized criminals who were being surreptitiously monitored. Remember, your government watches you because it loves you. Alex Forrest: "Well, what am I supposed to do? You won't answer my calls, you change your number. I mean, I'm not gonna be ignored, Dan!" |
