In his 1998 book, Seeing Like a State: How Certain Schemes to Improve the Human Condition Have Failed, James C Scott explains how "managers" need to homogenize everything to make it countable, make it "measurable", and thereby make it predictable and controllable. He uses the example of a forest which the state cannot see as a complex dynamic ecosystem but must rather see as "board feet of lumber grown per year". The most efficient way to maximize board feet is to bulldoze the forest and plant a monocrop of a single species of trees. The forest has now been "managed". But it's no longer a forest. It's now a plantation. It is no longer a complex living organism. It is now a lumber production facility. The managerial state materially transforms living systems into economic units.
Big data is doing the same thing to humans, reducing people to "consumers" whose desires, opinions and behavior can be categorized, measured, predicted and "managed". We are livestock, managed by Big Data ranchers who have decided there are too many cattle so the herd must be culled.
Digital DNA, my goodness me.. 😂 With 80million $, what I will do..?
Will a free independent internet save us all the good citizens..?
Where is Truth, your Truth, my Truth...?
Manipulation is everywhere, primarily inside most human beings.
For me only Love is real.
You can call me a dreamer, but if u do, u are wrong.
People is so scared to heard the Truth, but then you realize that Truth doesn't belong to anybody.
"Strawberry fields, nothing is real..."
I can tell you the Truth and I always do, but I realize it's my Truth.
Don't tell me anything, just show me.
I want actions that show me who you really are, every minute, every day, consistently, then I wouldn't need your words.
Look at my eyes, give me a hug, show me a smile, so then, I will be able to FEEL You. I need to Feel to know the Truth.
How can we feel anything through a machine..? Even if it has digital DNA.
Real wisdom comes, from the heart, and the heart is the abode of Spirit, only bringin connection with our heart can we discern false from true.
So maybe it's OK to have a different type of internet networks and servers etc. But A. I. is not going to give us real Truth ever.
We are so afraid to connect, to get together, to touch each others, to get too close, that's why people connect through internet, it feels safe.
I'm not going to invite you to my house but I can connect with you through the net, and pay a great independent server with bitcoins and... Voilà, this thé solution. Well, maybe you think so, but I don't agree.
Look at my eyes, hold my hands and connect heart to heart. That's for me the solution for all the lies and manipulation in this world.
I have long thought that a simple proxy between the browser and scp would make a nice alternate internet without an need for ssl certificates. And the Bitcoin blockchain could function as a kind of uncensorable DNS for it, mapping names to scp keys which identify people and encrypt their content. Search would still be a problem though.
Last week a mile from home I realized that I left the house without my cell. Turn back? Round trip maybe 20 miles, one hour visit. “What if the car…what if someone really needs…what if I really want…” Heart to Self: “don’t you remember how freeing it was back before?” Oh, yeah…
How would this parallel platform deal with infiltration from the elite's stooges and snitches? I decided to search Gab's marketplace, and to my dismay discovered that whoever designed that mess didn't take into consideration that I'm not interested in buying a car, boat, bike, RV, etc. on the other side of the country. So one of the problems is that we don't have the talent to even do basic coding yet which is going to immediately cause people to drop out from the internet altogether.
Who has a smartphone that wasn't part of the corporate/government surveillance plan? Who's going to come up with the smartphones that don't have these technologies, and what makes anyone think the government will even let them?
I was getting a physical the other day to maintain one of my onerous government licenses, and like many places these days; in addition to filling out a stack of paperwork, one has to get into line and use a tablet touch screen which well over half the people in line can't begin to figure out.
So this "new and improved" technological device that is supposed to make like more convenient results in office staff having to constantly run back and forth to figure out what the problem is.
Eventually signs go up on the wall informing whomever it may concern that when you're prompted to scan your license, simply click "No", etc., etc. etc.
They're pitching this narrative that their new and improved digital ID will make me safer and more protected, and offer me more opportunities to excel in life by taking out loans, being reminded of the newest booster shot, etc.
However, If I'm not in their system to begin with, and don't need their new gadgets, loans, fiat currencies, then they might just have some trouble finding out where I am or who I am. I can't think of anything that could provide me with a deeper sense of safety and security. What happened to what's his name, and where did he go?
One of the older examples of usury being documented as an instrument of war can be found in the Hebrew bible. God instructs the Israelites to invade and destroy the inhabitants of the Promised land, but they spare quite a few so God instructs them to destroy them with usury.
This particular instrument of war is just as effective today as the first time it became instrumental in destroying whole civilizations. Don't ever pay interest or attention to anything going on in this entire corrupt, asinine system or the next one.
As I understand it, the internet depends on the telephone lines and they are government property (ownership = control). And thus, we are property also, long ago sold by our parents and grandparents who preferred free stuff to free people.
Thanks. Well done. I agree TPTB will try a cyber attack next. They are not done but they will ultimately fail. Tyranny never wins in the end. They are in the death throes and the race between their next moves and humans waking is on. Humans win in the end. The parallel world is already forming (substack is an example, a piece of it.) What we don't know is how many will perish before that happens.

Been racking my brains on the subject of a "NewNet" for years now. To go into detail would take me all week to write down, but I am fond of a system that would imply something similar to a memory trace in the human brain. Your thoughts are yours, and therefore most private by design. Seeing, listening and speaking are a challenge though. Such a system would imply a form of distrust at the onset of contact.

The Mark of the Beast was never possible until the internet /digital age. Now it is being rolled out quickly. A choice will be made by everyone.

So you're saying they're not "safe and effective"? C'mom GS!

Surely the first casualty of war is the battle plans. Dont Generals say their Plans take a beating from the moment of impact ?
The OffGuardian (highly recommend)put up a piece, a video from James Corbett ‘s
solutionswatch series today re: search.

We need a digital samizdat .
What to do? Have you looked into IPFS or Freenet?
