U.S. Spies on Millions of Cars

Signed, Your humble tax paying slave.

Much to the chagrin of our rent-seeking overlords, whom see speed traps and red-light cameras as a means of revenue generation rather than safety measure.

Ostensibly to reduce the amount of uninsured/untaxed drivers on the roads.

Don't want to sit around in databases? Well, here's a nice list of just a few of the things you can't have:

Bank account; Car/motorcycle; Mobile telephone; Internet-connected computer; Credit/debit card; Visible face (oh, we might be safe there, for a few years)

Unless of course you're a criminal, in which case you can handily avoid a lot of this!

I used to think we could escape surveillance using technology. Fool's errand. We'd need an entire culture change. It's gone.

If blanket video coverage of public areas is fine, why not blanket audio coverage? Add in facial and audio recognition. Now consider you're running about with a microphone webcam combo in your pocket, the power and battery life of which will only increase.

I hate it with every ounce of my being, but I can't see a way out here. I can't see the 'line', any more.
