Maybe it's just my way of thinking, but why pay any attention to their posts and groups? They're only purpose is to piss people off, I really don't think they're trying to swing people to see or consider their views. It's mostly anonymous, so you don't have someone literally in your face chanting hate slogans, and they can't get satisfaction from seeing you get mad or whatever - they need people to post back. Why not just ignore them and they'll eventually go away?
I work for Roadway at a terminal in Bloomington California. I do not drive trucks, but I load them and I am a Teamster. It's hard for me to believe that the GPS systems are being used to monitor employees for abuse of time or whatever. On the dock that I work on we probably damage close to a million dollars worth of freight per day, with no repercussions. We also have cameras, but they can only be used for damages and theft, they cannot be used for abuse of company time, so I'd think the GPS rules would apply in the same way.
