When all the important people start pushing an idea, run from it as fast as you can. From Leo Hohmann at leohohmann.substack.com:
The Independent Sentinel reports that the Gates Foundation is the initial major stakeholder in the Global Digital ID scheme being rolled out by the World Economic Forum.
Yes, as the Sentinel notes, this is the same Bill Gates who during the Covid scamdemic swore that any mention of digital IDs made you a “conspiracy theorist.” Now, he openly touts it.
At the World Governments Summit in Dubai, Oracle chairman and arch-technocrat Larry Ellison proposed that each nation unify citizen data including health records, finances, and voting history into a centralized database to “enable AI applications” in public services like fraud detection and resource allocation.
Ellison said he supported body cameras for police and citizens to promote accountability through constant monitoring and endorsed biometric authentication over traditional computer passwords.
Critics, including myself and others, have condemned the plan as a step toward dystopian surveillance, citing a complete disrespect for privacy rights with comparisons to authoritarian Orwellian control.
The Babel is going to work this time?
Such dullards as leaders, it won’t end well.
