For me it is also about making sure there is always a choice. It is the 
same with electronic money vs cash, or public services that are only 
available through smart phones (with tracking) vs on pen and paper.

The government wants to remove cash and they want to make sure that you 
need a tracking device on your person at all times. Nothing would make 
them happier. The silent majority are unaware and seldom think beyond the 
next TV-show.

So as always it's the enlightened few who have to fight for the freedom of 
all the rest, while being hated for it, since they do not understand what 
it is all about and only see us as "that guy" who causes trouble all the 
time.

I mean, look at china with their social credit score, or the truck 
protesters in canada, I think that should be enough of an example of how 
evil the government is, and how important it is not to become dependent on 
smart phones and virtual money.
