Re: Police Can Attach GPS to Cars Without Warrant
 
To be honest I do see where you're coming from, and I'm in the same boat of not having anyting to worry about because I do nothing wrong. I also highly doubt I'll be targeted by someone for malicious reasons. But, stalkers controling this system can and will happen. That's why I'm against it.

It may not by my wife and kid who is followed around, but someone somewhere will do it. So I'd rather just not allow a system that can be abused in such a way to exist. Just like warrantless wire tapping... they can tap me all day, they won't find anything because I don't do anything wrong or have anything particularly bad to hide. But maybe one day I will have something to hide for my own reasons, and maybe someday they will tap my phone for malicious reasons...

I'd rather just drop the system all together then have to worry about it.

As I also do nothing illegal, I won't be afraid either if cops would put GPS to my car without my permission. But in the sense that it is a private property, why don't they ask permission for it? I believe it's my own choice to choose. Everything must be done in a proper way that both party knew that GPS in implanted on my car.

Why were these spammers allowed more than 1 post?

Lol, yeah since they do that, I don't mind them.

Cray brought up an interesting point too. But I feel guilty giving a bot props.

I'm just wondering where the advertizment is... what's the point of them...

What do you mean 'where the advertisement is'? Did you check their signatures?

Ooh... I didn't notice the link in there. Yeah I probably wouldn't ban them.. they're smart, and their ads aren't annoying and big. But I'm not about to click them and see what virus I get lol

Oh I clicked them. No viruses that I'm aware of. Just some weird niche medications (if any of you are a female who gave birth, you might be interested).

Who said they wouldn't use it?

And since this is considered irresponsible, what is a responsible way to secretly track someone's car without a warrant? :ohreilly:

There isn't one.

I agree, outside of one possibility...

Which is when the person who owns the vehicle ASKS to be tracked and gives polie concent to do it wheneverthey want. That's the only time it's responceable.

wow im really impressed by these spammers. They are actually saying things that are relevant to the topic.

I guess spamming technology has come a long way...

I mean, if the police have no reason to be searching for you in the first place - they won't be - so you have nothing to give a shit about.

You can already track cell phones, so why not cars. It makes sense, to me.

It will make it easier to find and recover stolen cars, the people who stole them, or to find criminals in general [as long as they have a car, or cell phone].

To say the thing about the collars is pretty silly. Because this is nothing like 'controlling a population and directly following you around'. It's your car. And like I said, they can already do it with cell phones, and nobody raised an eyebrow at that.

Haha, if the OP was said that car tracking by GPS was great you would have sprung up with the argument about how it's not.
