It is recognizable that in many parts of the world, approaches to
"tracking", while different, have been a standing issue.  As an example,
in China, electronic tracking of individuals for criminal and civil
enforcement purposes, has been in effect for > 4 years. 

So long as Privacy remains deeply misunderstood among all that value it,
societies in all, will remain ‘hog-tied’, and unable to scale such
capricious assaults upon it.  New explorers must awaken and venture
forth to fruitful lands.  That is to say, with respect to desired
Privacy and Security manifestations, journeys to new /terra firma/ must
be undertaken;  and buttressing those journeys must be, /revolutionary
brainwork & praxis./  Entirely new bridges too, are needed;  for in
their collective absence, the negative eventualities imposed upon all -
will soon be too costly a burden for each of us to shoulder;
individually or collectively. 

Merely sharing a couple of related thoughts...
