  1. This is a scary idea! It sounds like it would be easier and easier to track people. However, it would be good for sex offenders or other criminals. Very interesting idea!

  2. Okay, this freaks me out a little. I'm already addicted to my cell phone, and I can't imagine not having the choice to leave it at home. Not to mention the scary idea of having people know where you are at all times. It will be interesting to see what happens!
