Just Where Is GPS Tracking Taking Us?

These days a lot of people are relying on a gadget called GPS. It helps people to get to places or to get to places when they are lost. The supreme court has been arguing to put a GPS on your car without you knowing to check where you are. People also use smartphones to get in touch with their friend, for example there's an app called foursquare to show where you are. People also use a GPS to track their children to make sure they are safe and not go to a random place. There is one recent court United State VS Antonie Jones and they put a GPS on his car and track him for 4 weeks. They found him still during his drug trade with others so they put him in court, so there is some uses to this.

I personally think that the court thing is good if they only put on people who are in court or criminals. There is no reason to put GPS on innocent people's car and track them because that is called stalking. I'm pretty sure that is a crime too. The rest for the smartphone's foursquare its actually normal because only your friends can see where you are not random people. So there is no chance for others to stalk you but your friend can see where you are too. I think its great to know where your friends are and talk about it to him/her.
