It's time civil liberties caught up with technology.  The regulators are way behind the curve on even the mega stuff like national defense. It's like letting the fox decide how to best protect the hen house.

The pattern I've become aware of, for decades now, is this: Deregulation > Crime > Regulation > Deregulation...rinse and repeat. A few get very rich and many suffer. What apparently is not well understood by "We the People", having been taken on such a disinformation ride, is that no country needs desperate people. Divide and conquer is what We have been experiencing. I still can't believe we are at this point, at year 250. Been watching it develop for decades now. I guess I didn't realize just how greedy and self serving some could be. To take We down, loot We, and run off to private islands (or Mars?!!).

I had my insurance agent ask me to explain why I'm against, and refuse to consider, that thing that plugs into your car and monitors your driving. He was pretty surprised when I instead responded by asking him to explain why he's my agent when there's so much competition out there.

Unfortunately I firmly believe insurance trackers will be standard in the near future.
