We need legislation with teeth before they manage to get this in every house. It's going to happen. Your phone, TV, doorbell, car, crosswalks and street signs are all going to be recording and tracking you eventually. Just recognize that's going to happen no matter what, and get real oversight and rules into place now. If we wait until it's all locked, the ruling party will never let it end.
