Excuse the hyperbole but there is not a single tyrannical government in history that didn't claim that by giving it up just a few more rights, the citizen would benefit.
Though less serious of course, this is the direction of "the digital cage" as another forum member quite rightly put it.

How long before AI, under some bogus national security act, can scan financial activities on bank accounts? Might they deduce that because you spend money on football, beer and donations to certain political causes that you should be on a watch list as you are deemed as a character that may more likely join an anti government protest?
"Your honour, the defendant has clearly displayed a pattern of poor behaviour, not only does his internet history show viewings of Andrew Tate videos but we can clearly see the individual, using face recognition software, chanting slogans with a pumped fist at football stadiums around Britain whilst his digital transactions show frequent alcoholic purchases...."
Laugh at me all you like.
