Tracking the movements of vehicles is quite a bit different than tracking cell phone conversations. There is no expectation of privacy when driving a vehicle on public roads. Operating a vehicle (at least in the US) is heavily regulated, requiring registration of the vehicle, insurance, and licensed operators.
This is really no different than the retinal scans and facial recognition in our future; they follow the same "no expectation of privacy" argument.
Our IDs are our registration. We have insurance mandates as well. Private land is subject to eminent domain, and will be seized for unpaid taxes. The only difference I see is that our operators are not required to have licensure!
The government should be for the people, but due to the apathy of the people, people have become slaves to their government.
They have been trying to start producing their own content for a couple years now. It was mentioned in the article, but i am excited they are bringing back Arrested Development as part of that effort.
They can be when they become vocal about them and use their fame to spread their agenda. People are entitled to their beliefs, but they have to deal the ramifications of making their beliefs known. It would be a shame, I have enjoyed some of his work, but when you turn out as bat-shit as Mel Gibson you do tend to lose some popularity.

Why isn't EVERYONE IN CONGRESS alarmed by this?
They like power. Even though we the people have the power constitutionally speaking...
Not for long
