American cops will

American cops will use the info to find places to coop

There's already enough places to get crowd-sourced data
It's everywhere. There for the taking.

Is it TomTom or TattleTail?
Wow!
Buy a TomTom and help increase your chances of getting a ticket.
What a marvelous new fearture!
Navteq in the United States?
United States cops probably will not buy TomTom data, since it is not a US company so their data may not be accurate in the US.
However, US cops will more likely buy Navteq data, which would be a bad new for Garmin users.
TomTom on a plane
Time to start taking TomToms on aircraft - that'll throw off their average speeds.
isn't this
a good way to show love to customers? Giving them up to law enforcement. If TomTom did it, can others be very far behind in doing the same thing or something similar?
Screw TomTom.
Screw TomTom.

AFAIK, Garmin doesn't collect time/location data, so they can't hose their users like TomTom did.
