I just don't get it.

Based on parent comments, you're ok with the government knowing WHO/WHEN you call someone. But you have a beef with the government knowing WHERE you called from?

And your basis for that is that they've always been able to collect WHO/WHEN, but WHERE is different because it's new?

The geolocation data is not tied to placing a call, the cell carriers keep and have a record wherever my mobile terminal is whenever its turned on and registered. Its tantamount to putting a GPS tracker on my person. This to me is a totally unreasonable encroachment on my right to privacy.

The where attached to a placed call is a grey area for me. It's might be acceptable, it might not, because where is a given when using a landline.
