If we are willing to accept it then it is guaranteed to happen. Last time I checked, this was still nominally a free country with elected leadership.

Subverting it is possible. Throw away loyalty cards. Pay with cash. Don't use Facebook. Develop an aversion to giving out any identifying information in any situation not required by law. Stuff like that.

Of course, most people won't subvert it because complying with the data collection is too convenient and too fun.

The travel checkpoint of the future will also include a cavity search as soon as somebody sneaks something aboard hidden inside a vagina or rectum, that is, unless the people get off the collective couch and demand their rights be restored. Anybody who doesn't want to get fingered at the airport better wake up damn soon.

On the plus side, the frequent flyer of the future will no longer need an OB/GYN.
