If it were just a hit and run, it would be ok. But, the govt has the "you give an inch, they take a mile" philosophy.
Precisely. They've proven that they can't be trusted to restrain themselves. That's why we have things like "civil rights", although with each passing day, those seem to be more and more of a passee notion also.

I'm siding with MB on this one. Sorry guys, I think they're doing the right thing. There's enough g-damn surveillance of anything and everything out there as it is. We certainly don't need our cars spying on us too.
