Yeah, or one of those ludicrous infomercials. ‘Are you tired of dealing with hoses? Try new Stretch-Hose™ the only hose made from rubber bands!’
More seriously, I guess since we’ve already given up our privacy when travelling internationally (since the Great War, anyway, when passports were generally instituted), this is probably not that much of a change. And I guess it’s marginally more convenient. Just … seems like a solution in search of a problem, really.
