Sarah's weekend trip to Montreal turned into a nightmare when facial recognition cameras at the border flagged her as attending a climate protest six months earlier – suddenly she was detained for three hours, missed her connecting flight, and discovered her "protest attendance" was now permanently linked to her passport record. Her credit card transactions from that weekend were later subpoenaed in an unrelated legal case, revealing every restaurant, hotel, and even the pharmacy where she bought headache medicine to lawyers she'd never met. This is exactly why smart travelers are going completely off-grid – because your personal movements shouldn't become permanent government and corporate records that follow you forever.
