“In many states, Americans can now ditch their physical wallet and verify their identity simply by tapping their device on a scanner. And just as digital wallets from Apple and Google have made commerce more convenient, digital ID systems could potentially make government interactions faster and more efficient. But they also raise the ominous specter of government surveillance. Can we have the efficiency of a digital ID without letting government track our every move?
Yes, but that's not the path we're on.
Take Colorado. Since 2019, Coloradans have been able to use a digital ID as a legal form of personal identification throughout the state.
Built and maintained by third-party vendors, Colorado Digital ID collects troves of information from users. As outlined in the privacy policy for myColorado, the app collects data ‘including, but not limited to your IP address, device ID and browser type," and information on the ‘general geographic area’ of the user. The privacy policy further details that the government shares information with third-party service providers and, much more concerningly, with law enforcement and other government agencies upon request.”
THINGS TO PONDER:
If you read this publication, you already knew that this was coming. Here was the headline in the June 8th edition of Ripped From The Headlines:
And, here’s what we shared:
“…That’s how the government being “all in your business” ends up.
Followed closely by this:
Over 30’s: Warn the younger generations… if they trade freedom for security they will get neither….
30 & Under: Read the sentence above.
Know Your Foe.”
Things are going to get worse if you don’t speak out and opt-out.

“Researchers have found that they can incept false memories by showing subjects deepfaked clips of movie remakes that were never actually produced.
As detailed in a recent paper published in the journal PLOS One, deepfaked clips of made-up movies were convincing enough to trick participants into believing they were real. Some went as far as to rank the fake movies, which included purported remakes of real movies like Will Smith starring in a rebooted ‘The Matrix,’ to be better than the originals.
An average of 49 percent of participants were fooled by the deepfaked videos. A full 41 percent of this group claimed that the "Captain Marvel" remake was better.
But a simple text description of the deepfake proved to be just as convincing, pre-empting any concerns over deepfake footage having a unique ability to distort recollections of reality.
‘Our findings are not especially concerning, as they don’t suggest any uniquely powerful threat of deepfakes over and above existing forms of misinformation,’ Murphy told The Daily Beast.”
THINGS TO PONDER:
Don’t let the Daily Beast trying to lull you into a false sense of security take away from what they are really telling you…
Just because these researchers believe that “a simple text description of the deepfake proved to be just as convincing, pre-empting any concerns over deepfake footage having a unique ability to distort recollections of reality” does not mean it’s not coming… or already here.
You’ll find confirmation of that in the May 3rd edition of Ripped From The Headlines (Click Here to read) where Microsoft Chief Economist Michael Schwarz said this:
“Artificial intelligence will be dangerous in the hands of unscrupulous people, according to Microsoft Corp. Chief Economist Michael Schwarz.
‘I am confident AI will be used by bad actors, and yes it will cause real damage,’ Schwarz said during a World Economic Forum panel in Geneva on Wednesday. ‘It can do a lot damage in the hands of spammers with elections and so on.’
AI ‘clearly’ must be regulated, he said, but lawmakers should be cautious and wait until the technology causes ‘real harm.’
“Don’t let the smooth taste fool ya.”

“US banks are increasingly closing customers’ accounts and freezing withdrawals without warning, according to a new report.
A growing number of people say they’re abruptly losing access to both their checking and savings accounts, reports CBS Los Angeles.
The report cites the sudden account closure of Elad Nehorai, who received an ominous alert while logging into his Bank of America account.
He then drove to a branch in West LA, where he was told his account had been shut down and access to his life savings was denied.
‘Bank of America told me it was shut down. They refused to give me an explanation. They told me I would get my money after it was resolved.
All of a sudden I find out I’m broke. I can’t feed my family and I can’t pay any expenses.’
Banks typically shut down accounts over concerns of suspicious behavior.
But according to the Banking Policy Institute, only 4% of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) submitted by banks to law enforcement result in a follow-up, and a small fraction of the follow-ups result in arrests and convictions.
Back in 2014, the number of SARs submitted by banks stood at about 830,000.
That number has significantly increased in recent years, with about 1.4 million SARs reported in 2021.
In addition, Republican attorneys general in 19 states recently accused JPMorgan of ‘persistently’ discriminating against its own clients and closing bank accounts without warning based on religious and political biases.”
THINGS TO PONDER:
Remember… once you put your money into that bank… it ain’t yours anymore.
The banks can pretty much do whatever they want with the money you gave them… including keeping it from you.
With the recent bank failures and issues with the banking system, people are now starting to see the sham for what it is.
MASSIVE, MASSIVE GRIFT…
When the economy goes sideways, you’ll quickly become VERY familiar with a “bail-in…”
That’s when the bank and the government decide you’re going to bail them out, and they just take 10%, 20%, 30% or more right out of your account…
“For the greater good.” Aren’t you excited now? NOT!!
Brace For Impact.
You need to be prepared… there’s just too much crazy stuff happening.
We’ve found the 4Patriots solar generators to be light and easy to use. Plus, they are quiet and don’t require fuel.
You’re able to power key things like your fridge, freezer, coffee maker, and more.
What Does This Mean?
Your government, and its minions, are out of control and blatantly violate the will of the people while robbing you blind…
They want you in a position where you can’t move, spend, eat, or do anything else, sans a Parallel Economy…
The US is turning into a combination of Mad Max & The Hunger Games…
What do YOU think that all means for you?
Why should I care?
Being able to…
Eat…
Travel…
Defend Yourself…
May all get REALLY tough to do…
Everything IS NOT fine.
You should care.
What Should I Do?
Get a plan together, ASAP.
Spiritual, Financial, Community, and Contingency.
It feels like a dark cloud, but if you’re prepared, you can help to turn things around and help people to recover.
