Two new federal GPS trackers have been found on an SUV in CA. The government says they don't need a warrant to use these devices to track anyone they want. Kim Zetter, reporter for Wired, will join Ian to update us on how the government is secretly using GPS devices to track people. Privacy expert, Lauren Weinstein, will weigh in with his thoughts about the government using GPS tracking devices on people without search warrants. [:(]

I wonder what would keep a person who finds a tracker on his vehicle from putting it on someone elses car, or just plain destroying it with a brick?
Placing it on another vehicle would probably be some violation of privacy. Putting it in the dump would probably not be.

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Soo if it hasn't already been done all vehicles will have a tracking device from the factory. They will just call it something like....oh....on-star or whatever. [;)]
No, they can't just track YOU. However, passage of the NDAA preempts any American freedoms YOU think YOU might enjoy.

"His discovery comes in the wake of a recent ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals saying it's legal for law enforcement to secretly place a tracking device on a suspect's car without getting a warrant, even if the car is parked in a private driveway."
This is old news.

The 9th circuit should be excommunicated, they are a rouge, liberal, facsist/collectivist/-black robbed star chambers.
On the other hand, you may be able to be tracked without them 'placing' a tracker on your vehicle. RFID chips are in some brands of tires, some states' driver's licenses, US Passports, and other devices like Toll Road trackers. Any one of these devices can be useful to track without having been placed there by an agent of the Government for the express purpose of searching and seizing you, your property, or any pertinent information. On the other hand, these RFID frequencies are less likely to be tracked by virtue of their limited use and knowledge of their frequencies and if it is specifically individual or by brand.
The wonderful age of technology we are entering into, and if evil can be done, it will be, especially by big brother.
Ya, just run right out and buy all them gadgets!!!!
There are ways to stay ahead of the spy's.
