This is not about safety, or caring about the welfare of people, this is about control! Let's be clear about that fact. Some people will never, ever get it, and will have no problem with it until it's too late. Once the technology is there that the government knows where you are at all times, what you are doing at all times, knows and tracks every single thing that you own, every financial transaction you make, it will only take a generation or two for humanity to be totally wiped away. Every person will be reduced to an automaton which will have to act like a programmed computer game character, or worse. Singapore looks like they are trying to lead the way!

Yeah, once any system gets in place and is broadly adopted, the speed at which it evolves/grows can be frightening. Technology is a force-multiplier and it "multiplies" at an exponential rate. The worst humans (usually the ones that float to the top) will have no qualms about pushing their power just as far as they desire when they are given the tools to massively suppress the population. Scary and sad. More and more people need to start disengaging, backing up a few steps, pulling themselves off the grid as it were. We can't stop countries from implementing evil monitoring schemes but we can make the task more difficult by not giving away every little piece of ourselves.

That's the key. People really have to stop adopting the latest gadget just because it's new. The best way for systems like 5G for example, to not come to fruition is to not buy smart devices. The system requires everything to be chipped, so hold out as long as you can. I've never had a smartphone and still to this day see no reason in having one. I will never buy anything that can be connected to a grid. More people simply need to just not buy these devices. It's very hard for many because they are addicted to them, but the alternative will be the worst of the worst human beings wanting and having the ability to control humans like never before.

hiveblocksFantastic points. I avoid networked anything ('smart' devices)at this point. I keep contemplating how to remove the smartphone from my life, though it becomes a little challenging from just a basic communication point of view (with the family). Will keep exploring practical measure dial it back. I've removed FB (8 yrs ago actually), amazon, and am in the process of removing google too. Small steps, eventually have a nice, comfy, limited relationship with the tech behemoths.| author | danielshortell |
