So a step further, you could add a user input feature and let people track any word they want.

Not only do they have face models. But they have immense details about those faces. Location, relationship connections, product endorsements, work and school connections...
After the last few revelations about the NSA that have come out. I think you should assume that it is all being used.

How about a text field that allows you to write something about them.
"Dude with weird hair, works for Widgets Inc. Said he was divorced but had a daughter in college."
Then make that info available when he calls me.

If your data, encrypted or not, travels through the US or any of it's allies, don't you think they already have access if they want it.
Privacy is an illusion.

I had the Atrix with the fingerprint sensor. The thing that I liked was being able to unlock the phone with one hand. But, the sensor was on the top back center, right where your index finger naturally landed. It was really nice when your hands were full.

Lots of hate for a keyboard that is getting reviewed by people based on pictures.
Has anybody reviewed it after actually getting their hands on one?

Also keep in mind that the last portion starting with "I have a dream..." and following was all improvised. The original draft didn't include those words.

I don't have a lot of respect for any coder who is afraid of leaving the pretty GUI of Windows. They would rather fragment the project than get their hands dirty.

I am aware of the connotation that you sited. But my point is that he is being tried in the media, and perception matters. So, no, I don't think it's OK to label him as a traitor.

No. He has not been convicted of treason. We still have due process.

Local law enforcement doesn't need million dollar drones or a sizable payload. There are already many small cheap drones available for local use. All that is really needed is a functioning camera.

I think you quoted me and posted in the wrong place.
What about a system that had no data retention but could actively scan and compare to a list of plates that had warrants, Amber Alerts or BOLO's. Surveillance is only going to get easier with tech. Rules of use is what is important.
