It's almost (but maybe not quite) a moot point, since the status quo in our society is to carry around a GPS tracking device 24/7, and the authorities can pull the records from it at a whim. Heck, I'm typing this on one.

There is a difference. You decided to carry that tracking device with you. You can decide to pause or stop carrying it.

Though, the instant you do you are flagged.

Just as although paying cash is fine, but actually paying with cash is highly suspicious - why would you ever want to do that if you have nothing to hide?

Coming soon to a future near you.
