Not ignorance... carelessness.. It's happening all over the place now... I find more errors like this on mainstream news sites every day. Professional writers are getting as sloppy as your average Slashdot poster.
On the contrary.. It will make it easier to watch the police from a safe place and keep the bastards honest.. A highly directional mic will help even more.. I'm all for it.
Even better, we can keep an eye on the cops from a distance. Finally we have more tools to fight back against the abuse of wiretap laws. Definitely a good thing.
Yeah, then we can use the oil to run the power plants... But it really doesn't matter, because it will all be sold to China, probably three or four times by the time it's actually consumed
,,,the first thing the government should do us stop subsidizing the purchase of electric vehicles through tax credits.
No, the government should stop subsidizing the oil industry, and this ethanol from corn bullshit. It can stop helping the alternatives when enough people start using them
As you just noted, provisions are already in place for farm vehicles, including the truck.. and some are pretty strict. If you produce your own fuel, for example, you're not permitted to use it in your regular vehicles..
This whole thing is probably to cover for electrics, because of the wide variety of recharging that's possible
You will make a declaration, like on a tax form 'under penalty of perjury', and subject to the occasional audit, when you have to pass your smog/safety inspection..
Don't take these comments as advocacy... but so far this would be the the cheapest, most convenient way to do it
This is a very useful optimization for most of us and the fact that it allowed people to generate a very rough log of our locations over time was simply an unintended side effect.
A very useful function for sure. I would love to be able remember where I was all last week. I figure since they'll always have this info anyway, we should be able to use it also.

Won't matter. This will make much easier to do it anonymously. They won't know they're being watched until the youtube vid shows up..

Then you should fire your broker... Smart people are making billions from it
No problem.. Hugo 'Boss' Chavez's got it covered

Not really interesting unless you use Kopete.
Oof.. Their naming drives me nuts. It just looks like they misspelled Kaopectate

That's a real stylish watch there.. It'll go with my Elton John glasses
Not really... Only a little less than ten years..
You need better evidence than 'Kilroy was here'.
Oh... NOW we're demanding evidence...
Halle Berry gave them a blowjob.
While she was driving...
Being tamper proof is in general pretty low on the list of ECU requirements.
That would all change if these rules were to pass.

ECUs, I will assume, have a serial number. If you get audited, you will burn in IRS hell.

From the moon an electric rail gun would work very nicely.. You gotta keep up with your sci-fi...
They read the odometer when you renew your plates..
I will expect my 200 mil in small unmarked, non sequential bills... thankyouverymuch
Neither actually make the idea any less retarded.

An orbital loop between earth and moon would require no propulsion at all once established except for course corrections. It's a 'free ride'
What?! You saying OBL blew it up? And would you believe him if he claimed credit for it?
Yes well, while everybody here is crying about tracking and suicides, the government has much more important issues to deal with... Focus people...
