Another guy who spoke up and went as far as to create a 1984 + our company name mashup poster got a talking to from the president. I have spoken up and will continue to, however, as much as I hate to admit it I need this job. I am passively looking elsewhere but part of me wants to stay and try to change it for the better. I joined in the first place because I believed in their mission to help re-integrate people into society, I thought I was joining the "good guys". I don't want to be responsible for writing code that prys into these people's lives and I really don't want to be a part of a company that does it at all. I understand we need to track these participants but location tracking is about as far as I feel comfortable with, anything more just feels wrong.

Right now, you're against the tribe. Not only that, but the tribe's position is cemented by financial interests and people at the top whose job is to make sure that things stay the way they are.
When I've been in situations like that before, it always ended up in the "dissident" employees being dismissed, shut up, or fired.
