Why not require bugs to be attached to the person? Crime could hide in 
places other than the home if only homes are bugged?  ;-)

What if you *might* be using encryption, but steganography might hide that 
fact. Couldn't crime hide there?  ;-)

Oh, for a world where more power to governments to intrude meant less 
crime, instead of more crime. "Chefren's world..."

The Chefren model is bankrupt. Only pretense is left, and the plug is being 
pulled on this list, problem solved, philosophy stated.
