Now I fully understand that there will be narrow minded idiots who will
ask why I'm opposed to this, saying things like "what do you have to
hide", and why worry if you're not doing anything wrong. Well, to me,
it's the whole premise of privacy. This is way over the top.

If you carry a cell phone, they know where you are anyway.

I don't know much about cell phones and rarely use mine. Is your
statement true if I have the GPS feature turned "off"?



Yes, and they can activate your mic and camera too... The only to avoid
it (if they are looking at you) is to take your battery out.

A friend of mine is a pretty big name Civil Rights Lawyer and Criminal
Defense Atty in NYC... His statement made me much more comfortable with
all of this really.. He said "if they have gotten to the point where
they are watching your movements, or tapping into the media devices on
your phone, you are already ****ed, and they are coming anyway so you
really shouldn't worry much about *that*... "
