Snips
Each time I purchase gasoline with a bank card, standing there, waiting for the “Approved” word to pop up, I am reminded that the transaction is not dependent only on whether or not I have the means. It depends on whether or not the connection works and if it allows me to buy. Many may not realize that banks have the right to close your account—for whatever reason. In the U.S., some with “conservative” views have already complained that credit card companies and banks are targeting them. [4] If you voted for the “wrong” person or take the “wrong” position… watch out. If you have cash stuffed under your bed, no problem. But if your account is closed because you are deemed “intolerant”, a “bigot” or a “terrorist” for your views…? It’s as easy as flipping a switch.
The cashless push has rapidly progressed. In a short time, we have gone from bank cards, to chips inside them, to now a cellphone or smartwatch completing the transaction with a mere “tap.” What’s next? It’s no longer a “conspiracy theory” to suggest that some kind of interface within or on the body is the next “safe”, “secure”, and “convenient” step…
HUMAN TAGGING...
THE DIGITAL CORRAL
True control of the monetary system is only possible if society moves to a cashless system. And that has already begun in many places. [2] Bills are too easily counterfeited. Cash and coins are expensive to print and mint. They’re tainted with bacteria, drugs, and all manner of filth. And most of all, cash is untraceable—perfect for criminal activity and tax evasion.[3] But then what? If I hold a dollar in my hand, I’m holding a dollar. But when my digital bank account says I have a dollar… the bank is “holding” it—somewhere out there in cyberspace....
Indeed, all that’s left for governments “to close the corral gate” is to merge biometric data collection with the right to “buy and sell.” In fact, that gate is already beginning to swing…
THE TESTING GROUNDS?
India recently launched the Aadhaar initiative for the entire country, perhaps the most invasive state-imposed collection of personal biometrics.
…each Indian citizen’s information, such as fingerprints and eye scans, [was collected into] a database linked to every part of that person’s digital footprint — bank account numbers, cellphone details, income-tax filings, voter IDs… —The Washington Post, March 25th, 2018 .....
over 3.59 million Chinese enterprises were added to the official creditworthiness blacklist last year and thus banned from engaging in numerous kinds of business transactions. Furthermore, 17.46 million “discredited” people were restricted from buying plane tickets and 5.47 million were restricted from purchasing high-speed train passes. [9] ....
GLOBAL SURVEILLANCE
The fact is that we are all being surveilled by a “data industrial complex.” Our activities on computers, smartphones, smartwatches, social media, websites, etc. are being harvested from organizations like Cambridge Analytica, Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc. Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, is surprisingly blunt about it all:
Our own information—from the every day to the deeply personal—is being weaponized against us with military efficiency. These scraps of data, each one harmless enough on its own, are carefully assembled, synthesized, traded and sold. Taken to the extreme this process creates an enduring digital profile and lets companies know you better than you may know yourself… We shouldn’t sugarcoat the consequences. This is surveillance. —Keynote speech at the 40th International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners, October 24th, 2018, techcrunch.com
It’s almost bizarre how people are excited that Alexa, Siri, and other “services” can listen constantly for your next instruction. Smart appliances, smart bulbs, and such can now respond to your commands. Many have noted, including me, that words spoken around their devices suddenly generates spam emails or ads on websites for the specific thing they were discussing. Facial recognition technology is rapidly being adopted in stores, billboards and on every street corner ....
latter now going to cloud computing, in many areas greater and greater supercomputing, and, ultimately, heading to quantum computing. —former CIA Director David Petraeus, March 12th, 2015; wired.com
That’s tech-speak for saying that we are close to the moment when every person will be tracked in real-time. This will be especially possible with the implementation of 5G (fifth generation) cellular networks and thousands of new satellites slated to be launched in the next decade that will not only make transfer of data almost instant, but will dramatically change the way we interact with each other and the “virtual world” (and here, I will not treat the serious health risks of 5G that include the possibility of mass mind control through the frequencies it will utilize.) Whether we know it or not, we are handing over our personal and national sovereignties on a platter....
When we have cast ourselves upon the world and depend for protection upon it, and have given up our independence and our strength, then [Antichrist] may burst upon us in fury as far as God allows him. Then… Antichrist [may] appear as a persecutor, and the barbarous nations around break in. —Blessed John Henry Newman, Sermon IV: The Persecution of Antichrist
Who are the “barbarous nations”?
