go outside and take a look around.
we've already lost the fight.
we've been fighting, but the average citizen just doesn't care, and now our basic freedom of revolt has been taken away in the name of national security.
this is sadly the way of the future.
in time, you will come to accept it.
until then, feel free to argue it, and fight it.
but in the end, they will win, and this kind of thing WILL be common.
yes, a cell phone can be tracked while it is powered on, even the non gps variants if the tracker is so determined. but it indeed does have to be powered on.
as far as using gps to track my driving habbits, and then charge me...
well, thats a mighty interesting phrack article...
you can bet it will only be a short while before someone figures out an easy, and simple manner of implementing it, and selling it ala radar detectors.
and once they are used to us jamming our signals, they will indeed begin pulling us over for not reporting.
and then we will find a simple and easy way to spoof another vehicles ID...
the game continues...
i recall an argument once that the use of radar, or lasers to determine your speed as being unconstitutional, and implicitly evil.
of course now, well, it is common place.
