We'll go extinct eventually so that's true.
What if I told you the idea of a passport was invented about 600 years ago and nobody needed permission to travel before that
I'd say that's a neat factoid.
I don't have a mobile phone. How is that supposed to work? Will owning a specific object and attached subscription to a private entity be mandated by law?
More and more not complying with digitalization will get you into trouble. I don't think it will be mandatory but expect to run into delays, similar to how you technically have the right to refuse the x-ray-like machine at airport security, but doing so is time consuming, everyone will hate you for it, and cause you significant delays, on top of making you look suspicious.
And it sucks.
I quit flying (domestically, at least) over the x-rays and TSA bullshit. I'm driving 13 hours today in order to avoid that particular security theater.
