      From: telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org              By Kathleen Moore              QUEENSBURY - This winter, plow drivers will have extra protection from       an electronic Big Brother.              The town is buying a geofencing system from Verizon for $16,000 a year.       The system will continuously track all 70 town vehicles.              "This system will alert us if there is something unusual," town       Supervisor John Strough said. "If a plow is motionless for an hour,       that is a problem. That might be an emergency situation. Maybe the       driver had a heart attack. Hopefully not."              https://poststar.com/news/local/queensbury-buys-program-to-track       town-vehicles/article_4deb9303-4b5d-538d-b2c2-f90a5f6a843c.html              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
