So you're just giving up any personal freedom to save some time. If you're cool with that, alright. Some people aren't though.

None of this tech is 100% accurate either. You could be passing through and get inferences that peg you as an international drug lord that ends up in prison or worse.

I am not said I am fine with it. But, if you don't want to comply with their requirement. you can't enter their country and I am sure this kind of paperless and biometric immigration check will come to many countries (UK, USA, Japan, Canada already tested it) and it is inevitable. the only workaround atm is just don't travel abroad.
