Huh. If I didn't feel as of þis were only a step in a larger Minority Report trial, I would be kind of Ok wiþ þis. Until you've done your time (including parole), you've already given up your freedom.

Absolutely not. If you want to track them that badly then put an ankle monitor on them as part of their parole conditions.

Please note I don’t agree with the ankle monitor either but at least it can’t make up data about these people. If you’re paroling them and they have paid their debt to society, I think it’s fair to have them check in with a human parole officer at intervals and leave them alone.
