It would also render many of our ideas for automatic feature extraction 
pretty much impossible.

I remember hearing about a driving enthusiast who was convicted of speeding 
using his own video tape as evidence - is GPS data admissible in the same 
way?  Hopefully it's accurate enough to convict someone if it's accurate 
enough for mapping!

Perhaps it would be easier to keep the owner of the GPS trail anonymous?  If 
we don't know, then we can't tell.
