This is kind of how I felt about it at first, too, but really it's the principle of the thing. I guess for me it's 1) the slippery slope argument, and 2) another teensy erosion of individual rights and privacy. It's not such a big deal by itself, but what if everyone started doing this? It just sets up an atmosphere of microscopic observation that I think lends itself to subtle forms of social coercion.
