<p>The Earth Custodians blog has already stipulated a few times that, unless people begin to stand up, transhumanism will reveal itself as an electronic prison by 2025 or so. Well it already is much that way but in 8 years or so from now there won't be any way back anymore. </p>
<p>Just assume that you have been (wrongly or not) accused of something, that somebody willing to search your smart phone, grabs and holds it in front of your face to unlock the device set to start with the facial recognition of its owner. Or just imagine that the self-driving car will ask to scan the chip in your hand to start the engine... or record all trips' destinations and discussions. In the late 90's, everybody was raving about how much smart electronic devices and appliances would revolutionize life but it won't be the case. Even bank ATMs will prefer at some point facial recognition over the 4 digit security code. That's how our civilization has always operated since the beginning of the ages, by selling dreams that cannot come true. </p>
<p>The Internet of things is spying on you 24/7, just plain simple -- and it is getting worse by the day. Here are a few leads, should you wish to start your own investigation: </p>
<blockquote> The Internet of things is the inter-networking of physical devices, vehicles, buildings, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity which enable these objects to collect and exchange data.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_things">More at Wikipedia </a> </blockquote>

<p> The problem with 'internet of things' devices is that we don't really control them. And it's not always clear who does. In Joshua A.T. Fairfield's recent book, he discussed what it means that our environment is seeded with more sensors than ever before. Our fish tanks, smart televisions, internet-enabled home thermostats, Fitbits and smartphones constantly gather information about us and our environment. That information is valuable not just for us but for people who want to sell us things. Security and privacy breaches are built in.... </p>
<blockquote>EARTH CUSTODIAN COMMENT: social isolation caused by 6hrs a day of smart phone use. This immersion into the vastness of Matrix has a heavy price tag. The Matrix gives the impression that everything is readily available but also can give a feeling of being lost in a maze. </blockquote>

<blockquote><em>Derrick Broze, Lead Investigative Reporter for ActivistPost.com:</em> With the advent of autonomous vehicles we must seriously think about the implications of bringing the interconnected Internet of Things into our lives on the road. The vehicles sensors will constantly be sucking up data and feeding it into the navigation system. The wide variety of data (weather, traffic, speed, location, time, date) could potentially reveal private details to the manufacturer, law enforcement, or hacker.β <a href="https://www.activistpost.com/2017/09/self-driving-vehicle-future-end-privacy.html">The Self-Driving Vehicle Future Will Be The End Of Privacy</a></blockquote>
<p>The smart grid is an interlocking web that will monitor and control all of the electrical appliances in your home at all times. Based on wireless technology, the privacy ramifications, health effects, and opportunities for outright government control inherent in the smart grid agenda are staggering. Tonight we talk to Josh Del Sol, the filmmaker behind the forthcoming feature documentary "Take Back Your Power," about this agenda and what you can do to stop it. </p>

<blockquote><strong>One cannot resolve the issues with the mindset that created them</strong>. Yes, it is possible to see way ahead of the curve, and if it takes one generation for a money-free society to take shape, that shouldn't prevent anyone from taking action, and using money strictly for online advertising until a critical mass (20% of population) is reached.
