You make a good point. There is just so much fear-mongering about tracking people, or tracking vehicles, or tracking information. Someone reads 1984 or Fahrenheit 451 and suddenly feels sure that every new technology will be used for only evil purposes. Wrong! Every new technology will be used for benign AND evil purposes. OK, that's almost a joke. But really. There are just so many instances of lives saved, or at least protected, as a direct result of tracking technology. Wikipedia has a good summary of the tech at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_tracking and these guys have a couple interesting news stories on how the gps tracking is reducing crime, recovering vehicles and saving dogs! No kidding. http://www.gpspolice.com/videos/ Point is, obviously personal tracking will be misused, but it will help people and save lives.
