Well, the whole GPS scare is silly. You've been able to put an address into mapquest/google/ms live, and get a sat image of the address for years now. I've used it as a house hunting tool to get a lay of the land to determine if I even wanted to go see the house in person. MS Live was particularly nice in that in addition to the look down view, it allowed for a more angled look, from all 4 compass points.

Google Earth on my iPhone; put in address and there you are, complete with Lon/Lat coordinates.

And the USPS already has every mailbox in the country geocoded.

You need to think this thru a bit.

Google MAP is not a government data base, and using it for surveillance data on US citizens would be highly illegal.
Not to mention that Google maps could have an accessible record of who the government is surveilling.

Now the whihte house can set anyone under the eye of Sat Surveillance, no records, no trail and no justification. There isn;t even a federal agency in the way to track its use. The White house has it directly.

You can call me silly all you want. This is a grave and serious matter.

You are certainly free to disagree all you want,but your position hardly holds up to any genuine scrutiny.
