Who wish higher anonymity will use anonymous coins, decentralized exchanges, etc. Government create more regulations to keep more track of what is happening, and that will never stop, but they can't cover everything. I am not an anarchist, but we need better systems, we need new governments, we need to pay more attention on world around us and make system that will be good for all of us.

It's not like Bitcoin's public blockchain would ever be used to store that kind of thing, plus blockchain tech already means data can interact without processors/controllers ever needing to interface with them.
