“It seems a little Orwellian, but this could save lives.” The great Faustian Bargain: giving up freedom and liberty for safety. What could possibly go wrong?

Are you out of your f*cking mind? As Franklin once said, “They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security.”

Thanks for bringing this to light! Personal freedom is a hair’s breath from disappearing completely and most people have no idea! What used to be science fiction is already reality and if we don’t wake up IMMEDIATELY it will be over except for isolated pockets. I know there are lots of brave people but I don’t have faith in the majority of us. This was going to be the golden age of man but we have fucked it up.

I will stay strong but I worry about the majority of us.

“It seems a little Orwellian, but this could save lives.”

In what way, exactly? The total loss of privacy to gain some vague life-saving benefit seems a poor trade-off to me. Time for folks to vote with their feet.

‘Smart’ Cities: Designed in Israel and built in China. That’s the blueprint.

Hint: Exchange the word ‘Smart’ with ‘For the Dumb’ and ‘Social’ with ‘Slave’ every time and you will see the final picture.

Human creativity and spontaneity wither when it knows it’s being watched.

I’m sure WEF’s Yuval Harari has a substitute designed for the occasion.
