Dissent is useless if you can't give voice to it, and that's exactly what these systems seek to do -- make it dangerous to do anything the state doesn't want you to do. From speaking in public to peaceful protest these databases will eventually be used to identify anyone who has ever peacefully participated in a democratic society.
This was what the FBI wanted in the 50s, 60s and 70s, and now, 70 years later, they finally have it.
