+1.

I'd love to see investigators follow all public officials like
paparazzi. I'd like to know when they get to work, who they eat lunch
with, when they go home, what route they take, when they have a
beverage at a bar, and when they meet their mistress or masseuse. The
public officials should not object since there's no expectation of
privacy in public; and its *not* less privacy than afforded to average
citizens.
