The Top 40

That as before microwave technology appeared. Oh, and sub-dural implants for GPS tracking. Lasers? Um, I don't think he saw them.

Now that we have them, use them, can we step back to see how invasive this technology is.

Drifting folks, but I can still see the shore:

Huge computer complexes like those under the mountains in Colorado and Utah, other places not as conspicuous, gathering and collating data from around the world @ one million bits per second incoming; cameras in drones, stop lights, on streetlights and building corners sending images at about the same incoming rate.
It would take less than ten minutes to find you or me or Joe Shmoe and we wouldn't have to be doing anything wrong like murder or terrorism, just if the PTB wanted to locate any of us.
By groups like Repubs or Dems, Whites over the age of sixty, who buys Chevron gas, who comments at American Digest, all and so forth. And that's not considering cell phone or laptop users at Starbucks "free" wifi. That's not counting the new smart watches. That's not including sub-dural implants or mini-transmitters embedded in our Ikea furniture. I tell ya folks, nobody No Body is invisible anymore.
Take a rugged individual family lives in the wilderness, never registered for anything - no S/S numbers, no banks, no medical records, nothing. One of the family members is walking the woods, hunting squirrels or deer and a drone or low flying plane gets pictures of the face. They go on file and when Jethro or Annie goes to town buy some wheat and salt more pictures until one fine day a name for the face.
I watched a TV show tonight at the suggestion of a friend, called "Person of Interest". Part of the story that is a vehicle for the plot is such a world-wide facial recognition system that tracks a designated person with live stream. We see her walking down a street, getting into a cab and whoopsie daisy we pick her up when she arrives at destination. Spooky and perhaps only three quarters true but still, three quarters is enough.
Beyond the point of no return. Total scourge of the planet with nuclear weapons wouldn't get all of it. Get used to it. Deal around it when possible. Use Sveik's passive resistance as modus operandi.
