With lack of regulations and legislation, ubiquitous surveillance is way beyond simple biometric identification and is now focussing on behaviors, including pre-crime analysis. Facial expressions, eye movements, gate, respiration, etc., are fed to AI algorithms to sense mood, personality and emotions.

Toronto is learning the hard way about Public-Private Partnerships with the likes of Google-linked  Sidewalk Labs. Smart City construction in its Quayside district is costly compared to traditional urban design, and data privacy is still an open sieve.

Smart City designers are not urban planners by any means, and are copying failed designs from over 50 years ago. Their Utopia will fail again, just as certainly as it did by 1960.

Technocracy has teeth when you don’t agree with its phony science. Big Pharma has driven this vaccine hysteria from day one, turning it into a belief system devoid of facts. In 2015, Al Gore proposed to “punish climate-change deniers”.

Technocracy’s dream is to perfect the global supply chain by streamlining infrastructure. To that end, this deal is highly suspicious. Sec’y. of Transportation Elaine Chao’s father James sits on the board of directors of China State Shipbuilding Corporation and her sister Angela is a board member of Bank of China. The conflict of interest is beyond the pale, even as Trump makes this $2 trillion deal with his supposed arch-enemy and antagonist Charles Schumer who serves as Senate Majority Leader.

Don’t expect the pothole in front of your house to be fixed. The focus will be on cross-border trade and a tsunami of Public-Private Partnerships that give control of our infrastructure to global corporations.
