Well, as soon as my browser leaves my virtual driveway, I guess they'd say I have no reasonable expectation of privacy on the Internet either. So I suppose they'll want to be able to pull records from ISPs without a warrant or probable cause too.

Heck, as soon as my phone conversation leaves the house or my cell, it is broadcast. Guess there is no reasonable expectation of privacy there.

Same for the US Mail, out of my hands, no privacy. UPS, Fed-Ex, ditto.

I guess this would apply to sound too, so even though it may take a few grand worth of specialized audio gear, I guess the government might want to listen in on my wife and I making love.

Hey, why just a my car? Why not come onto my property and tag my clothing with RFID tags too?

Where does it stop? How about this - don't let it start. This warrantless-anything crap has to be struck down right now. This notion that the socialist/fascists have that we have no reasonable expectation of privacy is BS. We have every expectation of privacy from un-warranted government monitoring. That is what the Constitution states. If our elected representatives are not going to uphold the Constitution they should be thrown out of office, possibly prosecuted and jailed. They should never be allowed to hold public office again.

There was a serious effort about 5 years ago to RFID all my animals. I would have had to report every time I took them off & onto the property- within 24 hours or face serious fines.

So far, many large animal owners have beat back these efforts. Since I own horses, I was not convinced that it was about ‘tracking cows for Mad Cow disease” problems.
