You want your parents tracking you 24/7? That's surveillance, not safety. It's the same logic governments use to justify total control. Once you normalize constant monitoring, you've handed away your autonomy. Trust erodes when you're treated like a suspect instead of a person. Real safety comes from honest communication, not GPS chains. Your parents don't need a tracker to know you're okay—they need a relationship where you actually talk to them. And here's the thing: the moment you accept this now, your employer, your government, everyone gets the template. You become comfortable being watched. That's not protection. That's the slow death of privacy.
What's your defense for surrendering that?
