This is an important point. Most people are deciding what they're ok with based on today's circumstances, government etc. What happens if some years from now, your past behavior is at odds with the current government. You will be flagged and there will undoubtedly be consequences, which, even if minor are still negative. E.g., flagged for searches at border crossings.

What's the chance that none of the warlords in countries in conflict will use this for their advantage? And that could easily be used for mass murder.
