I guess your post can be summrised as: "To ensure public safety some freedoms must be sacraficed."
Little here little there, little everywhere it adds up.

The ACLU left that one alone because it helped capture bad guys who shot & killed people during a bank robbery. Though the killers tried to claim their civil rights were violated, etc for various reasons.
Had the ONSTAR technology had the ability to allow control of car engines they may have been found sooner.
