That is why they rolled out vaccine “passports.” To condition the folks to accept government surveillance and control over our movements. They made it effectively mandatory, without having the right to do so, to own a smartphone with internet access and to use a app on it.
Once the folks get used to this, over a virus, they will be more disposed to accept it for other purposes.
But the best part is 10 years or so off: “self-driving” cars that are under the control of a central computer and government-approved algorithms. The government will have total control over where you go and don’t go, and when. Oh! you thought they really meant “self-driving”, didn’t you?! No-ho-ho-ho! They will have the ability to say “John Jones didn’t get his 438th booster shot. Well, he doesn’t get to go to work today!”
With due respect to Rush, “Do not doubt me.”
