Location data for sale... "FCC can't punish us!"

[Quantum12]

It is already punished financially if you don't provide location data with your vehicle, with the FastTrack system or whatever electronic toll devices. Costs like twice as much to pay by mail, in some states. And they photograph your license plate anyway.

With cell phones it is punished, too, but socially. People really judge you now if you say you don't carry one. And many thing are less convenient. It's easiest to say that it is at home charging. I keep an old cell phone plugged in at home; I don't like to lie.

I guess if it ever becomes mandatory, it will take another generation or so. Enough of the demographics who can't imagine living without one on them at all times. Already if I'm out in the wilderness where there's no cell service or internet-backed map GPS, it feels a little weird. I didn't grow up that way, but became used to it. People now are growing up that way.



You don't need an app for that it's built in with the iPhone -- Share location data. Satellite too for when you're outside cell networks.

The share location on iPhone got me it big trouble with my ex. It was way off and she was tracking me.

She accused me of being on some odd street far away. I was at work.

I unshared it with her and soon she released me to freedom lol!
