Why not just shove a location detecting chip under our skin and be done with it?

Essentially, total control over our movement and finances appears to be the goal of the courts and bureaucracies. Congress and the White House have been treating us a their subjects for decades. m/r

Appeals Court Delivers Devastating Blow to Cellphone-Privacy Advocates

Jenna McLaughlin  May 31 2016

Courts across the country are grappling with a key question for the information age: When law enforcement asks a company for cellphone records to track location data in an investigation, is that a search under the Fourth Amendment?
By a 12-3 vote, appellate court judges in Richmond, Virginia, on Monday ruled that it is not — and therefore does not require a warrant.
The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld what is known as the third-party doctrine: a legal theory suggesting that consumers who knowingly and willingly surrender information to third parties therefore have “no reasonable expectation of privacy” in that information — regardless of how much information there is, or how revealing it is.

Research clearly shows that cell-site location data collected over time can reveal a tremendous amount of personal information — like where you live, where you work, when you travel, who you meet with, and who you sleep with. And it’s impossible to make a call without giving up your location to the cellphone company.
