(partly off-topic rant) One can argue this is a false premise fallacy. For most of the time states did not have this information about their citizens and the world progressed quite nicely. The only argument to know stuff about citizens that don't drive (increasing numbers) nor travel abroad (different problem altogether) is to tax them?

One of the foundational differences between humans and cattle was you cannot brand (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livestock_branding) humans. Not physically, because we do it digitally and I see a slippery slope.
