Speak for yourself. I don't wish to limit my freedom for any reason.

Although I agree in a way, you already have limits to your freedom that you have agreed to tacitly. The differences, for instance, in the technology (from GPS to tanks) allowed to the military and to the citizenry. It is codified, explicit, and everyone seems to agree that it's okay. It's certainly a limit on your freedom, if you want to speak absolutely, but if you don't think it's reasonable, that's a difficult point to make properly.

any freedom? isnt that a bit drastic? or are you referring to the particular issue of privacy here?

We exist for only a moment compared to how long the universe has existed, and how long it will exist.

I don't intend to spend this short time worrying if someone else would approve of my choices.

I am more than capable of making my own decisions without harming myself and others, to hell with anyone who believes I don't deserve to do so.

In one dimension I find existence, in two I find life, but in three, I find freedom.
