They looked shocked, but how could they know I was the founder of the hashtag #BoycottPRESTO? They looked at me like I was crazy. Now, Presto has already been used to track illegal migrants and I've never liked regular passports[*], so I explained to them "Look, I support the vaccine, but not the passport" -- security people were called over, drawing attention to my desire for privacy -- one of the guards spoke "Oh they just said that there's not going to be a passport", -- "Not YET", I replied, "not YET" -- I turned around and the only staff looking up from their vaccine station to observe this was an indigenous woman.
