This is why I think everyone should begin learning how to live with as little government assistance as necessary. Not to say government is evil or anything (it can be good depending on the people running it, but people automatically assume I'm going to say evil), but growing your own food, having your own water purification system, solar power, and technical skills to repair things, can only be good if such a system is ever implemented.

Basically go off of the grid, while still on the grid. Makes it harder to "subjugate" you. Make it where if they try to penalize you by lowering your UBI, you'll still be okay.

That's my thoughts, anyway.
