Too Orwellian!

While I see the benefit, again I see the abuse that can take place. Talk about the ultimate police state! Think about it really hard... me personally I don't like the idea of someone tracking my every move. It's none of their business.

All it takes is one BS "tip" and a persons life can become a living hell. One mistake and it will cost an innocent person a job, marriage and quite possibly their freedom.

With these things in the air, you give up your freedom and liberty for security. You don't deserve the freedom anymore. Once these things are in place and the bugs worked out, it becomes easier to control people and monitor people... we have cameras on street corners and now this?

You can call conspiracy theorist all you want, but the bottom line is history, recent history has shown that this government cannot be trusted to NOT abuse the power they have. Yes I understand it's local law enforcement... but how much of a reach is it for the Feds to step in and take over?
