IMHO, Soros is banking on the trend that once the genie is out of the bottle, it can't be put back in and that available technology will be used, and eventually accepted.
The proliferation of gadgetry and its insinuation into the very fabric of our lives in the past three decades has not only diminished resistance to technological change, but also what we consider to be 'privacy' (along with psychological conditioning from the media, schools, and shrinks to strip off any clothing on our persona, and eventually our bodies, in self-disclosure).
This not only brings more ready acceptance to being scanned and the technology to do so, but less resistance to the idea of being displayed sans garments.
Those of us who have had the moral upbringing to decry this are the holdouts, but even we as a group appear to be on the decline.
The weakness, of course, is the use of 'molestation' and 'harassment' charges to put our business and social culture in disarray, which now beg the question of why the current TSA protocols aren't molestation and harassment, especially when applied to the very children the Left has claimed they were fighting for.
Even dumbed-down bread-and-circuses Americans are still protective of their children.
If this isn't stopped at the airports, it will only be a matter of time before there are roadside checkpoints. That is when the real lockdown will begin if the Anti-American pogrom continues.
