    Is a license plate ok? Should people take off their license plate if they want?

    Personally I don't think you need a license to operate a motor vehicle. The only thing licensing is good for is revenue collecting. There may be some need for identifying a hit and run suspect or a gas thief, a ID number plate attached to the vehicle can be worked into law the same as having to have turn signals and break lights. The issue is not what the law says about the type of vehicles that are permitted to be driven on public roads, the issue is someone attaching a GPS device to your car without your knowledge (even when it is in your driveway) WITHOUT A WARRANT and having a government thug track your every move.

      The case is an important test of privacy rights as GPS devices have become a common tool in crime fighting, and can be affixed to moving vehicles by an officer shooting a dart. Three other circuit courts have already said the authorities do not need a warrant for GPS vehicle tracking.[^] You worthless backrooms scum need to wake the fuck up and submit to hardcore tyranny. Get down on your knees and beg for the rifle butt instead of the bayonet, and then say thank you very much SIR! after that.

      Don't worry, they won't need to affix anything to your car - they've already got their spy satellites tracking you.

        Who needs a satellite? When the wind blows a certain direction I'm pretty sure I can smell him from here

            It's more a matter of what the law actually states, rather than what you assume it means. There is nothing saying someone cannot touch your car, as it's more or less inevitable that someone will intentionally or otherwise. There's no law against setting something on your car even, as much as it may annoy you. There is also no given law against tracking a transmitter that just so happened to be set on your car. If the law doesn't say they can't do it, quite explicitly, they'll just find another way to do it. They're joyfully exploiting technicalities to violate the privacy of the individual, if you actually have any interest in protecting your privacy rather than your property I'd recommend addressing it as such.

              He wouldn't care if Dominos was tracking him on a delivery... In fact, they should just install a permanent tracker into his personal vehicle (As if he had one), since it's fine if a private company does it. So the government just needs to contract this surveillance to a private company, so CSS's teabagger ideals aren't compromised :)

                You mean what constitutional and common laws the government officials and politicians exempt themselves from. I mean, Chairman Mao lawfully killed 80mil Chinese dissidents which is universally recognized as a crime against humanity. If there is no law in China or anywhere else that says its a crime does that make it ok? It is a property rights issue. I know you believe that people shouldn't be allowed to own property, and any property that they are permitted to hold on to shouldn't be protected.

                  They did fit a tracker to his tinfoil hat, but after it didn't leave his mums basement for a year they gave up, not realising it was accurately reporting his position! but that was before he got the pizza job and the super powerfull scooter in a fetching pizzahut colour scheme (he is hoping for a promotion to the 10 y/o nissan next year if he can just stop forgetting the addresses!)

                    Cool, I used to work for a company that made GPS receivers about 5 years go. I was involved in building a system to be fitted to delivery trucks that would log the truck's location and send it real time via GPRS.

                      I should have been more clear. I was referring to CSS and not Ian. Ian has never said anything close to racists remarks or anything else crazy.
