Maybe I'm a luddite, but I'm not thrilled with parts of this. Yes, I'd love
to have a small GPS in the truck or even in my watch so that I can tell
where I am. But I absolutely DO NOT want it telling anyone else where I am.
The last thing I want is somebody noticing that I drove to Carlisle and
deciding to send me coupons for some restaurant along the way. That's about
the least obtrusive application. Yes, of course I realize that they do the
same thing with credit cards, but at least there I have a choice to pay with
cash instead.
Am I the only one who doesn't want "them" tracking my movements?
