Aren't you already not in control of where you go on foot? We have plenty of restricted areas for everything from anti-terrorism, govt buildings, and private property. There's even private roads for driving - this doesn't really change the laws it just makes enforcement easier. My hope is that we can automate enforcement of stuff like speeding tickets, and then people would get upset and we'd either raise the speed limit, lower the ticket price, or agree that it's not safe to drive that fast (or in that area)
- nonethewiser 4y agoIf that’s “not in control of where you go” then it is an entirely different sense. By that reasoning our movement is out of our control because we are physically incapable of walking away into the sky. And because it’s neither physically possible nor allowed to drive everywhere. The analog to what I’m saying would be something like disabling your legs and asking for permission to walk on a public sidewalk.
- e_i_pi_2 4y agoA car isn't analogous to legs though, that would be the closest analogy with respect to the rights we have. You're always allowed to lose a license, nobody has any right to drive a car, so the concern is where you're allowed to go _given_ your mode of transportation - and any mode can be restricted based on current laws You can lose your license and not be allowed to drive anywhere, but you can still walk around - that's the whole rights VS privilege thing
