Very eye opening thank you Hakeem. As for the surveillance question - should we have that available to us? Well, way back in the 90’s my children were in a school in England where Professor Heinz Wolfe was the guest speaker for speech day. He proceeded to describe everything you’ve touched upon in this latest video, ie the technology employed to judge whether you’ve been to the loo enough times in a day, let alone all your movements, all your thoughts and all your heart beats. I sat there listening to him in mild shock, knowing for an absolute certainty I want no part of this projected world. Well, scoot forward nearly 30 years and it’s here now but I have not changed my mind one jot. I do not wish to be surveilled ever, nor spend my life watching others. But that world has arrived which makes me so grateful for your highly informational videos to circumnavigate this technological intrusion. And well down the Dutch youngsters!

even though this technology makes it possible to 'watch' people through walls we must remember to not jump to conclusions. i feel the same way about those who says our minds are being read remotely. maybe the technology exists, but without proof that its actively being used against the public why would I put the stress on myself and give the perpetrators more credit than they deserve.

although there's always new stuff happening we should stay focus on the stuff in front of us. right now that's these data centers.

thanks for watching!

I much appreciate your posts.

I too was freaked about RFK statement about getting every American into a wearable medical tracking device. Ugh!!

I have supported most of what RFK proposes, so I was actually shocked when I first read a this story in the media.

However, Brownstone just released a story after an in depth interview with Kennedy that took me off the ceiling.

Best to read yourself, but Basically in the interview, Kennedy said he chose his words very poorly; he never intended this idea as a mandate; such a program would have to be evaluated for value, and yes, privacy concerns matter. See: https://brownstone.org/articles/kennedy-and-medical-wearables-a-clarification/

Actually the threat of Comcast wi-fi is far creepier as they are the main internet provider in my city.

thanks for sharing! no its not a mandate but it seems like politicians never learn. we wasted millions (if not billions globally) on biosurveillance for covid. now we're turning around to do it again?

there's so much more they could be doing with that money, like making better food and programs available for people.
