I've often said that if you went back to 1990 and said "in 20 years, everyone in America will carry a device that allows the government to track them 24 hours a day, and not only will they do this willingly but they will actually pay a significant amount of money for the privilege" you'd be called crazy. And not just because you said you came from the future.
I wonder why these Idiots need a Tracking Device to monitor their Running Activities when Homo Sapiens has been Running for Tens of Thousands of Years w/o them.
Oh, well, since Shepards tag their Sheep nowadays, I guess Sheeple have to follow along....

I doubt Winston had any idea how much he paid. The fees were probably deducted from his paycheck and he never saw a bill.
ReplyDeleteThe fees came out of his Social Security contribution.

ReplyDeleteWearing a jawbone fitness device is entirely option... just like carrying around a "we don't track you - meta-data only" cellphone is.
There's also those toll transponders, the automatic license plate readers, and even the federally mandated tire pressure transponders in your wheels.
