This brilliant article by technocracy expert Patrick Wood highlights the advances coming down the pike with so-called smart cities. The U.N. has made a push in recent years to bypass national governments and implement global governance through cities [Recall how when President Trump withdrew the U.S. from the U.N. Paris Climate pact the mayors of many major U.S. cities said they would ignore his decision and proceed to comply with U.N. regulations, not U.S. laws]. Also remember that the UN biosphere project seeks to drive ranchers and small farmers off their land and push more people into cities.

Only 20 years ago this was mention in sci-fi books and movies. Just think in another 15 years if not already, they can track you anywhere in the city. Monitor all your movements and conversations, with no place to hide.

Just watch the movie Enemy of the State starring Will Smith for an example. The tech exist now and has been around for awhile. Everything you do or type on the internet is being recorded. Only a matter of time before they record your voice for data processing, or is it here already (Siri).

Do you want the Red or the Blue pill? Is it time to move to the DarkNet.... ?

Darknet, deepweb, for 99% of us it matters not....your data is still be gobbled up in unimaginable ways.

I’ve worked on projects in the last couple years with AI/Machine learning that could identify people accurately based on such trivial everyday real life actions it made it obvious that “anonymity” is no more.

Any fool who lives in such a city will become a rat in a maze.

If you have to call a thing “smart”, it ain’t.

I am just starting AI for work. Our websites know everything about people who visit our site.

Everybody thinks EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), aka right to be forgotten, will protect their identity..

That is just the EU way of making money through fines. The data will still be collected, a good AI can piece the data together to identify anyone.
