Yep, I saw the cat and mouse ending at ever increasingly invasive verifications involving more parties, that could ultimately still be worked around by a state actor. We already get asked for "block access from these country ip ranges please" as a security measure despite it being trivially bypassed, so it is easy to predict a useless but strong demand for blocking users based on their verified country.
This feels so true, all this surveillence/controlling seems like it will be a non issue for the dedicated hacker or criminal eventually and just a lost right for the regular person
