Does the practice exist? I'm sure it does. And while I would probably agree that it could very likely be a red flag of trust issues, I have also seen subs/slaves on the forums talk about being tracked (knowingly) as very exciting. It could be a mutually fulfilling kink or it could be an insecurity. If it's happening your relationship, you'll have to decide which it feels to you.
My thoughts exactly.
As an unannounced practice, unless there is an explanation that ties it into previously expressed preferences, then I would consider anything beyond mere possessiveness to be a real warning sign. If coupled with emotional instability or attempts at isolation, it is a potential danger sign. But it is rare to see it go beyond possessiveness, which is a trait that seems to be present in most men to some degree (hunt, conquer, possess; it's an instinct).
But when agreed upon, it can add excitement, ranging from a playful game between the two ("this time, he won't find out, hah!"), via an exciting sense of continuous presence and control, to outright paranoid thrills. A tracking collar can be valuable the instant someone is lost, injured or kidnapped, so a few of the available measures are actually beneficial in themselves. Besides, a lot of submissives feel safe when they feel possessed and/or controlled at all times, and many feel safer in bondage than without. It is certainly possible to structure such a practice to serve as an extended leash, a continuous form of bondage, or even a cage, depending on what works for the couple in question.
If more people were actually interested in it, I could make a career out of creating hi-tech toys, so I think it's a great idea. [:D]
Health,
al-Aswad.
