GPS placed on vehicles during traffic stops.

"Jensen has testified that the battery-powered devices, which agents could turn on and off remotely, were used to follow vehicles into remote areas or if agents lost vehicles in traffic.
In one instance, agents placed a GPS tracker on one of Amaya's vehicles during a traffic stop in Kansas after obtaining information that he was making a trip to Texas. In another, agents used a GPS device to track a vehicle that was sent with suspected drug money on a car carrier from Iowa to California, changing its batteries after a stop in Nebraska where they seized $29,000.
Jensen has testified the tracking helped confirm a tip that Amaya went to a bank to transfer money to a California marijuana supplier. When on, the devices updated their location every 15 seconds, which was transmitted to a website where agents could track movements."

According to this source
Naturally, there will be no serious repercussions from this corrupt system. Who will watch the watchers? When they are all corrupt, there is no incentive to police them to even hold fast to their own stated rules and procedures. Corruption, while deplorable, at least points at the cracks in the foundations of this decaying imperial power. Corruption in the courts will lead to corruption of the security forces, and eventually they will be unable to take concerted action against a domestic insurgency and...if we are lucky, popular revolution against the bankers and the FEDGOV.
