My house sits well off the street with a whole bunch of trees between the street and my house. You’d need a telephoto lens to take a pic of anyone inside my house that also has x-ray vision.  
A large part of the population live in apartments and most of them do NOT face the street.

I worked for our mayor at his greenhouse when I was 15. One thing he said rhat stuck with me was it’s not what the people want, it’s what we think they should have. I don’t remember the issue and I didn’t have a copy of the constitution to give him then, but beware of politicians.

A story. Some years ago a guy disappeared. The family was concerned so the sheriff tracked him down. He wouldn’t divulge where the guy was, just that he was safe. The sheriff said this is the US, a guy had a right ro not be found if he wants. My kind of cop. I think people have a right not to be tracked.

Fine

But if a guy wants to hide and NOT pay his obligational child support, he needs to accept some people will consider him a deadbeat
