I'm curious to see where it takes us in the next 3-4 years, as new technology frequently results in new problems. My bet is that there will be a civil liberties case around GPS services (likely concerning a spouse or a child who doesn't know they're being tracked) that will define the parameters of what is permissible. This much is certain: I'm glad GPS location services weren't available when I was a teen.
