    My opinion on the huge data gathering is not to punish those who prefer the couch-potato lifestyle, but rather, put "red flags" on those who maintain an active lifestyle by rejecting the food that the gov't says is good to eat, and by exercising regularly: these types of people could be a threat to the gov't, since they would be ones to lead any sort of rebellion. Why else would the gov't want to monitor what people eat, drink, do, etc?
