Would it be any different if they were tracking his car? Does tracking an object owned by a person somehow make it any better? What's next, Musk's TV viewing habits? Browsing history? These are just things and not the person, so it's ok, right? No, of course not.

The comment I responded to was about tracking the person. A person's viewing history is different from their automobile being reported in a public place. Steve Jobs disliked it so much that he would regularly lease cars to avoid having a permanent license plate that could be associated with him. [0] TV viewing habits and browsing history are not public activities occuring in plain view of everyone else.
