    Yeah people say this but it isn’t really true. If I was following, posting logs, taking photos, posting online those photos and logs of some kid in your family I am pretty sure this would bother you. Way back in my uni days there was an incident about someone doing that to the coeds on campus. The school was able to stop it solely because he used the school computer not by some legal mechanism.

    You only think you have no expectation of privacy when no one tries to violate it.

      Happens to celebrities. The reason it doesn’t happen to me is I’m not very interesting.

      But it been annoying isn’t really the point it’s not how the law works. I don’t make the law, I’m just pointing out that how the law works, and under the law you have no expectation of privacy in public.

      A beautiful strawman. This is about driving and traffic enforcement by the government, not creepy campus stalking by a crazy person.

      There is no conceivable reality where the government will publicly post your movements for everyone to see based this system. None.

        Does expectation of privacy disappear if there is no abuse? I wonder because expectation of privacy is about belief not based on motivations or integrity of others.

          You’re still beating up that strawman. Expectations of privacy change based on context. Driving = no. Walking around = yes.

          At least in the US, I believe this is actual legal case law so I’m not making stuff up here.
