Comment on Justice Department to defend warrantless cell phone tracking

Comments

If we're innocent, why do we need to be tracked? If they have no suspicion of guilt, then for what reason do they need data about us?

I want the protection of 'requiring a judge's approval' before police are allowed to track me. The risk of having my self or my information at the mercy of either corrupt, or easily hacked, law enforcement is too great.

>If we're innocent, why do we need to be tracked?

Because governments, including the american government, are well known to also persecute the innocent.

It's not about murderers, fraudsters and rapists --it's all about political cases, whistleblowers, dissidents, and such.
