This is where we are headed. Checkpoints on our streets, obtrusive and threatening surveillance on our media devices, mandated physically invasive medical treatments, including vaccinations and insertion of tracking devices into our bodies. We will need to show we have received permission to travel, go to the park, shop, and exist on Earth, consisting of some form of biometric ID and approvals from various and myriad bureaucracies so necessary humanity cannot live without their total and utter domination as we always have before.

Yup. Many of us have been seeing this in development in the past. It was coming down the road, and now it's just around the corner. Yet, most will never think that any of this is real, and when it happens, won't see anything wrong with it, and it they do, won't think there was anyone who saw this coming.
