Oh no. You wanted to enter another country and they wanted to know who you are in case you do something illegal while there?!?! How very 1984.
This is a country that doesn't even allow you to sell to used electronics stores without a residency card so that you can't scam them.
This seems like a really dumb gripe to have that you had to enter immigration in a other country. Complaining because you got detained in Singapore or China cause you complained about the government or handed out some VPNs on a USB (I did the delays were fun) is commendable but this seems like yelling at shadows.
