Countries worldwide begin implementing WEF total surveillance agenda
Nigeria has started exercising cyber control over its citizens under the guise of security. If you live in Nigeria and want to make outgoing calls on your cellular phone, you must register in a national digital identity database. The Nigerian government, in the name of security, has restricted 73 million of its citizens, more than a third of the country’s population, from making outgoing calls.
According to a Reuters report, “Nigeria is among dozens of African countries including Ghana, Egypt and Kenya with SIM registration laws that authorities say are necessary for security purposes. . .”
Alberta, Canada, is hiring a digital ID manager “to build and manage platform services like digital identity, digital payment . . . [and] user-experience data collection.”
Bologna, Italy, “is deploying a “Smart Citizen Wallet” which will be the primary method for citizens to collect digital coins in exchange for behavioral changes.
“Citizens who display good [climate change] behavior such as correctly recycling or using public transportation will be rewarded.” Bologna is essentially deploying a social credit system by another name.
Frontline News reported last month that Joe Biden signed an executive order tasking his cabinet and various federal agencies with developing a framework for a CBDC (central bank digital currency). China has already instituted a CBDC.
According to the Financial Times, “CBDC’s will likely be tied to personal accounts that include personal data, credit history and other forms of relevant information.”
All the above is in line with the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) agenda. According to the WEF, “Digital ID, digital payments, and data governance are each important individually. Together, they add up to a powerful public good.”
For all its platitudes about how this will help the most vulnerable among us, these policies also lead to the total surveillance of every person. Something which was unthinkable just a few short years ago is now being implemented across the planet with nary a whimper from anyone.
Consider the following exchange in March 2013 before the US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
Senator Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat on the intelligence committee asked NSI head James Clapper, “Does the NSA (National Security Agency) collect any type of data at all on millions, or hundreds of millions, of Americans?”
Clapper replied, “No sir,” rubbing his head. “Not wittingly.”
Three months later, NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed data showing that the NSA collects phone records of millions of Americans daily.
Clapper resigned.
Historian Yuval Noah Harari said, “We are now seeing mass surveillance systems established even in democratic countries which previously rejected them . . .”
Do we really want our governments knowing every online transaction we make, every purchase and every phone call? Do we want our governments to be able to shut down our ability to make phone calls, access the internet and our bank accounts if we don’t “behave properly”?
