Hell no to all of it! Thanks for sounding the alarm on technocratic creep! Fitbits, Alexa, running route apps, etc are just some of the on-ramps to the merging of humans and technology. James Corbett of Corbett Report shares deep dives into this topic. Can't recall the precise podcast episodes but omg, it gets extremely chilling down this particular rabbit hole. One example I remember was a technocrat talking about monitoring people's inward body signals that may not correspond to their outward actions of say, clapping for a particular politician. The insurgents could be identified via this invasive bio-surveillance. Scary!
I hear you!! When I read about things like birth control that can be activated with an app, the implications of hackable medical surveillance and what could be done from afar sends ice through my veins! All these things disguised as "helpful" can take a dark turn very quickly.
Thanks for speaking up on this, Mickey - Technology is a path of centralized control - instead of increasing technology, we are now called to increase spirituality. I used to think technology and spirituality could co-exist - now I have my serious doubts, especially so-called "smart" technology.
Thanks, TL.
It's utterly demoralizing.

So not into “wearables” or “thought police!”😩
Thanks, Maka. And I can't lie, it's damn depressing how people just shrug me off about stuff like this.

I'm glad to be in the same side as you in this spiritual war.
Amen!
