The Feds will already have most of this information now.
They've long had your bank account information (thanks to the PATRIOT Act). They probably have trackers installed on the chipsets of devices, but ignoring that, we know they are capable of intercepting most internet traffic.
Most people have their fingerprints taken, either as the result of a run-in with the law, legitimate or otherwise (clerical error). Or because they were incentivized in some manner (TSA Precheck). Federal IDs are rolling out now too.
